I am designing the web application which will be used by network engineers. This application will help them to know the statistics of their network.
I would like to know which is the minimum resolution to be considered while designing the same?
1280 is widely preferred resolution but 1366 is recently topping the chart.

The simplest solution would be to contact some network engineers and find out what screen sizes they are using. I imagine you'll get a wide range of answers but that a few of them will be more popular than others. Weed out the extremes and you should be able to use these results to find the (sensible) minimum screen size.
