I am looking for a program to scan my network and tell me what devices are using what HARD-CODED IP addys....(not DHCP obviously:p)

UNFORTUNATELY, I had an .xls file with all that information in it, and I lost it when I last formatted!! :(

I am looking to find all the IP addys of all my servers, printers, AP's, etc....

Can anyone help out??

Thanks.
 
SuperScan4 works wonders.

There are tons of others, but that's a pretty generic stand alone freeware program.
 
i use softperfect network scan tool.

but yeah, there are a crap ton of them
 
I use angry ip scanner. I have noticed that most anti-virus apps out there classify it as spyware all thought I'm not sure why...
 
I don't think such a thing exists. There are lots of IP scanners that you tell you 'something is using ip x.x.x.x", but not "somethign is using ip x.x.x.x and is set static".

Maybe cross-reference a IP scan with your DHCP client table?
 
Surely, you know what range your DHCP is set to though. My DHCP only hands out addresses between .100 and .150. Anything a scanner picks up outside of that is static.

Yea should be easy keeping this stuff in mind.

I use AngryIP as well, and it works just the way I want it to.
 
There actually is a gui for nmap now, look up Zenmap, it's actually fairly nice and doesn't get in your way while still helping newcomers.

fyodor made one years ago too, I tried it for a few days then went back to the CLI... this was back when I was in HS though(like 9 years ago :p)
 
I use Angry IP Scanner here

simple and effective, the days of a CLI being cool are over :D

lol,, but the days of efficiency are not. Nmap is the most efficient program and faster too than any other GUI based scanner

open CLI --> nmap -sS 1.1.1.0/24

bam, done.

I'll have to try it one day to see the speed difference (you may have already). Although on a smaller network the speed difference is probably not as noticable as an enterprise level network.

I only have to change 2 numbers on Angry IP Scanner and click a button. Thats pretty efficient to me :)

There, fixed that for you... you DO constantly have a xterm/putty session open, right? :p

lol, come to think of it.. i can't think of a time when I dont have atleast one putty session open. Good call :D:p
 
Can anyone give me a hint on how to do this scan?? I downloaded nmap, with zenmap GUI, and I did a scan like you guys suggested? 1.1.1.0/24 it scans and says it's done... but then what? I don't see anything?? :confused:
 
I am running win7, and angryIP wouldn't even run.... :(

Right now I am doing tracerts... it works, but time consuming doing one ip at a time...

Umm 1.1.1.0/24 is a generic network. You need to scan your subnet, for example most home networks are 192.168.1.0/24. Do a ipconfig on your machine, take that subnet and input it into nmap.

In my case, it would be nmap -sS 192.168.2.0/24

Thanks for the info.... when I saw 1.1.1.0 I figured it was gonna start there and go all the way to 255.255.255.254 or something.... thanks for clearing that up. Once I changed it to 10.10.10.0/24 it found all my devices... even gives me the MAC addy's(which I had before as well)

Thanks for the help. Worked great.

P.S. I have ALL the devices here 'stickered' with their IP addy on them somewhere... but I don't feel like crawling around under desks, climbing ladders and looking at projectors,crawling in behind photocopiers, etc... to look at the labels :D
