I was wondering how everyone monitors and troubleshoots their isolated control networks.We use mostly Rockwell components, and usually Control Logix. For example, we have many isolated Enet/IP networks consisting of Enet drives, Remote Enet I/O, and HMIs. These are behind 1756-ENBTs modules. Unfortunately we have NTRON 500 series switches which do not support SNMP, so we are limited to the N-view utility.
We are exploring options for troubleshooting these networks beyond the simple network tools, like ping. We've been considering IntraVUE, from Network Vision as an option to help us.
So, what do most of you use? is your network small enough to just use simple diagnostics? Or, do you use products like Wireshark and IP scanners, more standard IT tools.
