Free Network Discovery Tools

Know what is connected to your network

It's difficult to control everything that happens on your network. New equipment is frequently added without proper review, resulting in a variety of problems ranging from address conflicts to security vulnerabilities. Sound familiar? How about the new intern, who downloads file-sharing software potentially leaving ports open and exposing your network or the executive who keeps switching network cards between the new laptops he’s test driving. Eventually there’s a problem or, even worse, an attack and it’s your problem.

You need a robust set of Discovery Tools to minimize the amount of time spent troubleshooting these kinds of problems and vulnerabilities. Want to create a baseline of active IP addresses and corresponding MAC addresses in your network, police your network for unauthorized devices, or quickly test ports for vulnerabilities anywhere across your network? It’s all here in the Discovery Tools.

The Free Network Discovery Tools consist of the MAC Address Discovery Tool, the Ping Sweep Tool and the Port Scanner Tool.
