Host discovery – Identifying hosts on a network. For example, listing the hosts that respond to TCP and/or ICMP requests or have a particular port open. Port scanning – Enumerating the open ports on target hosts. Version detection – Interrogating network services on remote devices to determine application name and version number. [11]
Bonjour locates devices such as printers, other computers, and the services that those devices offer on a local network using multicast Domain Name System (mDNS) service records. The software comes built-in with Apple's macOS and iOS operating systems. Bonjour can also be installed onto computers running Microsoft Windows.
UPnP logo as promoted by the UPnP Forum (2001–2016) and Open Connectivity Foundation (2016–present). Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) is a set of networking protocols on the Internet Protocol (IP) that permits networked devices, such as personal computers, printers, Internet gateways, Wi-Fi access points and mobile devices, to seamlessly discover each other's presence on the network and ...
Kismet differs from other wireless network detectors in working passively. Namely, without sending any loggable packets, it is able to detect the presence of both wireless access points and wireless clients, and to associate them with each other. It is also the most widely used and up to date open source wireless monitoring tool. [citation needed]
Network devices discovery (MAC-address an device model discovery): Host with MAC=XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX from UDP -port 63321 or 63323 sending packet to broadcast IP -address 255.255.255.255 and UDP-port 63322 or 63324 Header @0x00000000 0x01 0x01 0x000000000000 0xXXXXXXXXXXXX 0x000000000000 0x0000 0x0001 0x4E534450 0x00000000 Body @0x00000020 0x0001 ...
HP Network Node Manager i (NNMi) 10.00 and the HP NNMi Smart Plug-in modules use continuous spiral discovery, [11] a network discovery technology that provides up-to-date network topology and root cause analysis. This allows network administrators to ascertain the level of congestion in their networks and identify the root cause of the congestion.
Supports arranging the hosts or devices it monitors into user-defined groups. Trending Provides trending of network data over time. Trend prediction The software features algorithms designed to predict future network statistics. Auto discovery The software automatically discovers hosts or network devices it is connected to. Agentless
Monitoring: This function enables the network management software to monitor the network for problems and to suggest improvements. [2] [3] The software may poll the devices periodically or register itself to receive alerts from network devices. One mechanism for network devices to volunteer information about itself is by sending an SNMP Trap ...
