Thousands and thousands of ports monitored... from what I recall from certain documentation, 2,000 ports is `good', 5,000 is `doable' and 25,000 is `too many' (for a single installation). * [email protected] (Neil J.

All of these companies are actively using SMARTS and broadening the scope of their implementation. Cheers, -- Niels.
