 \par\sa120\sb120\qr\f1\fs16 dedicated to Kundel

 \par\sa120\sb120\qj\pard \f1\fs18\sb120 {\b Big Brother} is a program designed to monitor your IP-network activities. it gives you a comprehensive picture of what happened to any point on the Net that you put in. Just {\uldb add}{\v Add} this point by specifying it's IP address or hostname and optional short description (for your information only).

 \par\sa120\sb120\qj\pard \f1\fs18\sb120 The hosts are organized into a hierarchical tree so that you may configure your network picture according to your needs and imagination. Most of the father host properties are inherited by his children unless you wish to specify child's settings explicitly.

 \par\sa120\sb120\qj\pard \f1\fs18\sb120 Every specified period of time {\b Big Brother} will send echo request to every host. And wait for response for at most specified {\uldb timeout}{\v timeOutHIDD_PROPS_SETTINGS}.

 \par\sa120\sb120\qj\pard \f1\fs18\sb120 Results are presented in a graphical form in the lower pane. Each line of the lower window is related to specific host which is shown on the tooltip when you move your mouse over the graphics. Host activities are also {\uldb logged into file}{\v fileHIDD_PREFS}.

 \par\sa120\sb120\qj\pard \f1\fs18\sb120 Your current {\uldb preferences}{\v HIDD_PREFS} and network tree are automatically saved on Windows shutdown (unless specified otherwise) and may be {\uldb autosaved}{\v autosaveHIDD_PREFS} every specified amount of minutes. Most recently used {\uldb file}{\v MRUFile} is {\uldb automatically loaded}{\v HID_FILE_AUTOLOAD} at {\b Big Brother}'s startup unless you don't want it.

 \par\sa120\sb120\qj\pard \f1\fs18\sb120 You can also hide {\b Big Brother} into your notify tray so that it won't occupy more than 16x16 square of your precious windows' desktop. Just click \{bmct bbullet.bmp\} in your notify tray or select {\uldb View/Main Window}{\v HID_VIEW_MAINWINDOW} from menu. Click \{bmct bbullet.bmp\} again to restore {\b Big Brother} to its full size.

 #{\footnote Using}

 ${\footnote Using Big Brother}

 { \f1\fs18\b\sb120 Using {\b Big Brother}}

 \par\sa120\sb120\qj\pard \f1\fs18\sb120 Using {\b Big Brother} consists of two parts - designing your network tree and monitoring it's activity. The latter takes no effort of yours.

 \par\sa120\sb120\qj\pard \f1\fs18\sb120 To design the network layout is to put your hosts into Network Tree pane. To {\uldb add a child host}{\v HID_BROTHERS_NEW} to the current just press insert or Select Brothers/Add child from menu. To {\uldb add a brother}{\v HID_BROTHERS_ADDBROTHER} of the current host select Brothers/Add brother from menu. (note: You can't add brother to the root node)

 \par\sa120\sb120\qj\pard \f1\fs18\sb120 You may also show {\uldb properties}{\v HostProps} dialog box by selecting View/Host Properties menu. {\uldb Properties}{\v HostProps} dialog box also pops up automatically whenever you press {\b Enter} in the tree view pane.

 \par\sa120\sb120\qj\pard \f1\fs18\sb120 Monitoring your network activities is even easier. You just relax and watch the screen (or listen to your speakers if you have ones). Network activities are reflected using the lower host activity pane and icons in the tree view. The possible states of the host are:\pard

 \par \fi0\li0 \bullet   \{bmct IDI_NOHOST.bmp\}{\b Network} - you haven't specified host name or ip address for this host. The only reason that makes sense is that you probably want to use this node as a father for family of hosts.

 \par \fi0\li0 \bullet   \{bmct IDI_PINGING.bmp\}{\b In progress} - checking of this host is in progress.

 \par \fi0\li0 \bullet   \{bmct IDI_HOST.bmp\}{\b Reachable host} - this host is reachable and you have no reason to worry about it.

 \par \fi0\li0 \bullet   \{bmct IDI_GOINGDOWN.bmp\}{\b Worrisome host} - this host was reported as unreachable, but less than for specified {\uldb retries}{\v HIDD_PROPS_SETTINGS} times.

 \par \fi0\li0 \bullet   \{bmct IDI_HOSTDOWN.bmp\}{\b Unreachable host} - this host is known as unreachable for a long time. Whenever the host enters or leaves this state specified {\uldb actions}{\v HIDD_PROPS_ACTION} are taken.\pard

 \par\sa120\sb120\qj\pard \f1\fs18\sb120 Lower pane shows a histogram of response times for a {\uldb specified}{\v logLengthHIDD_PREFS} amount of time. Histograms are shown for current host and it's descendants. Hidden (collapsed) children are not shown in activity pane. When you move your mouse over histogram tooltip shows the host name and host address for the corresponding host. If you also hold left mouse button or Ctrl key it will also show you the time corresponding to the point you point at. If you hold Shift key it will also show the Round Trip Time.

 \par\sa120\sb120\qj\pard \f1\fs18\sb120 Histogram shows the Round Trip Time in the following colours:\pard

 \par \fi0\li0 \bullet   \{bmct green.bmp\} Host's response time is less than 1/3 of the {\uldb specified}{\v timeOutHIDD_PROPS_SETTINGS} timeout.

 \par \fi0\li0 \bullet   \{bmct yellow.bmp\} Host's response time is more than 1/3, but less then 2/3 of the {\uldb specified}{\v timeOutHIDD_PROPS_SETTINGS} timeout.

 \par \fi0\li0 \bullet   \{bmct red.bmp\} Host's response time is more than 2/3 of the {\uldb specified}{\v timeOutHIDD_PROPS_SETTINGS} timeout.\pard

 \par \fi0\li0 \bullet   Ping data packet size - the size of echo request packet in bytes.

 \par \fi0\li0 \bullet   Ping .. hosts simultaneously - number of hosts to ping at a time. If you have a big network to monitor and have a slow computer or connection, you may want to limit number of hosts to ping simultaneously.

 \par \fi0\li0 \bullet   {#{\footnote fileHIDD_PREFS}}Log to file - Here is where you specify the name of the file to log hosts activities to.

 \par \fi0\li0 \bullet   {#{\footnote logLengthHIDD_PREFS}}Show last .. minutes in activity pane - This is the time length of your graphical pane window.
