Router analyser software

For some time we are looking for a comprehensive tool to monitor and analyse cisco routers. There seems to be enough around, but to be honest, I don't want to try them all to find out, the last tested is the best ... :-)

So, I am hoping to get the benefit from you experienced network specialists, and asking for some hands on opinions. The analysis must exceed only traffic offcours, and will have to be about protocol etc. Also, an alarming tool (traps or ...?) would be nice. Also, a real time sniffer is appreciated.

It doesn''t have to be free (allthough less is nice), but my limit is somewhere around $ 1,000.- max. for a license.

So, who can help me out?

Thanks in advance.
