This simple application utilizes SNMP and other protocols to automatically scan the network and detect connected devices. Users can gather information from switches, routers and endpoints without needing extensive manual configuration. Moreover, it is possible to constantly monitor activities to detect changes, such as new computers being added or existing ones being disconnected.
