SNMP Recon

The switch is in front of you. The laptop is at your desk. SNMP Recon queries the SNMP devices on your network — switches, routers, firewalls, access points, printers, NAS boxes, UPSs — from the phone in your pocket. Read a value, walk a subtree, pull an interface table, export what you found, standing in the rack row instead of walking back to a terminal. One purchase covers Mac, iPhone and iPad. IT DOES NOT SCAN YOUR NETWORK There is no sweep, no port scan, no discovery of any kind, and no screen that could start one. SNMP Recon talks to one address at a time: the one you type. It is a tool for equipment you already own and already have the credentials. IT ONLY READS GET, GETNEXT, GETBULK and WALK. There is no SET operation anywhere in the app, so it cannot change a setting, reboot a device, or write anything to your infrastructure. That is not a preference you could turn on by mistake. The capability is not in the app. WHAT IS THIS BOX? One tap returns the system name, uptime, interface count, location, contact and description — and the manufacturer, worked out three different ways, because equipment is inconsistent about saying who made it. Some devices name themselves in their enterprise OID. Some report a shared or generic one and only name themselves in their description. Some say nothing at all in the standard tables and have to be asked directly. A UniFi switch, a UniFi gateway and a Synology NAS each land in a different one of those cases, and each comes back named. WALKS THAT FINISH, AND STOP WHEN YOU SAY Walks use GETBULK on v2c, many rows per round trip, and fall back to GETNEXT for agents that will not do it. Rows appear as they arrive rather than after the last one lands. Stop a walk part way and the rows already collected stay on screen, with a line saying it was stopped — because a walk you interrupted and a walk that finished should never look the same. TABLES, LAID OUT FOR A PHONE When the results describe a table — an interface table, a storage table, an address table — SNMP Recon lays it out as one card per row rather than a grid you scroll sideways forever. The flat list is always one tap away, because a table view hides anything that is not part of the grid. MIB FILES, IF YOU WANT NAMES Import standard or vendor MIB files from the Files app and 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.8 becomes ifOperStatus, and a bare 1 becomes "up (1)". The number stays next to the label, because you are often checking it against a vendor document that uses the number. SNMPv3 Username, SHA-1 or SHA-256 authentication, AES-128 privacy. Passphrases go into the Keychain marked for this device only, so they are excluded from backups and never sync anywhere. When v3 fails, the app says which of the four fields is wrong — a bad authentication passphrase and a bad privacy passphrase are different messages, because they are different problems. EXPORT CSV or JSON, out through the share sheet to Files, Mail, a ticket, or anywhere else. The enumerated label and the raw value get their own columns, so a spreadsheet can still sort the numbers. ON iPAD Three columns: targets, the query and its results, and the value in full. THE REST OF THE SUITE Hand a host to IP Recon, Port Recon, DNS Recon or Cert Recon, and take handoffs from them. A credential in an incoming link is discarded rather than used — only the address is taken. PRIVACY Everything happens on your device. No account, no sign-in, no analytics, no tracking, no third-party SDKs, no server anywhere. Your community strings and passphrases never leave the device. Buy it once. No subscription, no ads.
