Unfortunately we have not built/tested on windows. The code itself is very 
portable. So may you could possibly use gnu cygwin.

TG is an end-to-end tool and does not measure/use any information from 
the router. You could use it to create load and/or measure delay 
along paths. 

It will definitely help to look at the SNMP Router MIBS because they 
provide a lot of statistical information that can be read out using many 
publicly available SNMP tools.
