eSTOP

eSTOP! was developed as a security product with the intent to view and (e)mergency STOP problem TCP connections. It displays in real-time any TCP connection in or out of your computer. Web connections are an example of a TCP connection. You can instantly stop that connection by double clicking on the connection in the list or by pressing one of the three large red buttons on the main window. Now with logging and blocking by port, IP address, hostname or domain name. eSTOP! is not a firewall. eSTOP! complements a firewall because you can use it to stop connections normally permitted by the firewall. You can make eSTOP! popup whenever connections happen--then do something about those connections! eSTOP is a shareware categorized under security, internet, tools, utilities tools.

ipPulse

ipPulse is a Remote Status Monitoring Tool. Use ipPulse to monitor the up/down status of IP connected devices (nodes) on any IP connected network. ipPulse uses a variety of methods, including ping, tcp connects, and SNMP to poll and check the network connectivity of a list of user-defined nodes. ipPulse alerts you to failures using a variety of techniques ranging from audible messages to email and pager notification. Supports a large list of target hosts entered as either hostnames or IP addresses. The list can be imported from a text file. Polls the list on a cyclical basis with full control over the list cycle timing parameters. Supports a primary and secondary test. Supports standard Ping ICMP Echo Requests/Replies and automatically uses UDP High Port Ping under Winsock 2 for failed contacts. Primary test only. TCP Port numbers for TCP connect tests are assignable on a per-node basis. Primary or secondary test. Optionally uses SNMP v1 as a secondary test by requesting MIB2 OID interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifOperStatus for every interface found on the target node. Community names are assignable on a per-node basis. Optional SNMP queries can be made for obtaining more extensive data from the target host. ipPulse includes a number of OID presets and 8 user defined OIDs. Example: you can obtain MAC addresses for every interface from an SNMP enabled host. Multiple alerts and logging. Alert options include beeping your computer, playing a wave file, notifying someone by email, or paging someone using either standard numeric or TAP compatible alphanumeric pagers. Logging options include logging all test results to a text file, logging only errors to a text file, or logging errors to a dynamically created HTML page. Any combination of logging options can be used. Alerts are issued upon failures using user-defined criteria. Changes from a FAIL state to a PASS state can now generate email messages or pager messages. This internet software is listed under monitoring, utilities, server tools.

ENUMresolver

A freeware program designed to query your default DNS for the ENUM NAPTR mapping between a telephone number and a SIP, H323, IAX2 or other URI. Use with VOIP systems to check your e.164 or freenum or other mappings. This program queries each default DNS assigned to your system using the e164.arpa or other root tree for the corresponding NAPTR records and displays them. This internet software is listed under network, internet search and lookup tools.
