IP Discovery tool?? 2

[bristolxyz]

Anyone know of a good FREE (the keyword here is FREE) network discovery tool that will do the following:

1. Scan a subnet or range of IP addresses and return the IP address, and machine name.

2. Able to export to an excel spreadsheet or comma/tab delimited format.

I have already used up and tried Solarwinds, NetworkView and a few others that are limited.

Regards,

Bristol

if your purpose is just to do what you say perjaps running a code like this could help :

cpt=1
while [ $cpt -lt 254 ]
do
        cpt2=1
        while [ $cpt2 -lt 254 ]
        do
                ping  -c2  213.102.$cpt.$cpt2 > toto
                if [ $? -eq 0 ]
                then
                        onename=`nslookup 213.102.$cpt.$cpt2 2>/dev/null | grep 
name | awk '{print($4)}'`
                        echo "213.102.$cpt.$cpt2 , $onename"
                fi
        let cpt2=$cpt2+1
        done
let cpt1=$cpt1+1
done

I'm sure someone have a better script to do that or can optimize this one.

bye.

Some here are free, some aren't, but they are supposed to be good.

raztouble's contribution is impressive, but unfortunately a Perl script.
A recent example of pure DOS/Windows scripting:

### START SCRIPT
@echo off
set MY_NET=192.168.101.
echo Just wait....

FOR /L %%i IN (1,1,254) DO echo . && ping -n 1 -w 30 %MY_NET%%%i > tmp.out
arp -a
### END

hi !
it wasn't Perl but shell script, you can do nearly the same in Perl to make it works for windows and unix.

Nice script bcastner! but if i understand well you ping the subnet to "food" the arp table so what if bristolxyz try to discover a subnet from another subnet ?

Have you looked at Angry IP Scanner?

http://www.angryziber.com/ipscan/

It is free, and works rahter well.

 

[bcastner]

Then change this value: set MY_NET=192.168.101.

I've used it in the past and it's pretty good. Not free, but cost was good.

Here's another star bud. AngryIP looks good for the cost.
