The uniqueness of this tool is that it accesses the server just as the client would (for example via Network Neighborhood) and therefore it is more effective than most other tools available. QuantumRelay will send an alert if the name resolution fails , server service is stopped, NT server is out of memory to the point of RPC service not responding, if WINS or DNS was unable to resolve the NetBIOS name, or if an NT server itself is not responding. There are many cases in which traditional network management software packages do not alarm when servers are inaccessible, even though it is apparent to users that they are; QuantumRelay does.
