Observer Quick Start Manual
Welcome to Network Instruments’ Observer, a network monitor and protocol
analyzer for Microsoft, Unix, Novell, Apple, VoIP, and wireless networks (to
name a but a few supported environments). Observer helps the experienced
network administrator to diagnose, solve, and prevent network problems.
This manual does not cover the entire range of Observer’s functionality.
Rather, it briefly describes how to install and configure Observer, and leads
you to some of the most commonly used Observer modes and tools. For more
comprehensive descriptions of Observer’s modes and tools, refer to the
Observer User Guide and the help system.
