Netzwerk Scan & Tools bringt Übersicht in dein lokales Netzwerk. Entdecke erreichbare Geräte, prüfe offene Ports und nutze praktische Werkzeuge zur Netzwerkdiagnose – direkt auf deinem iPhone oder iPad. GERÄTE IM NETZWERK ENTDECKEN Scanne dein verbundenes Netzwerk und zeige erreichbare Geräte mit IP-Adresse, erkannten Namen und verfügbaren Herstellerinformationen an. Suche und Filter helfen dir, einzelne Geräte schnell zu finden. OFFENE PORTS PRÜFEN Wähle zwischen verschiedenen Scanarten mit unterschiedlichem Prüfumfang. Der Scan läuft in zwei Phasen: Zuerst werden Geräte gesucht, anschliessend ihre Ports geprüft. Einzelne Geräte kannst du direkt in der Detailansicht erneut scannen. GERÄTE PERSÖNLICH ORGANISIEREN Vergib eigene Gerätenamen, ergänze Notizen und wähle passende Symbole. Markiere bereits geprüfte Geräte, damit du in grösseren Netzwerken den Überblick behältst. NETZWERK-WERKZEUGE NUTZEN Prüfe die Erreichbarkeit mit Ping, untersuche den Netzwerkpfad mit Trace und sende Wake-on-LAN-Pakete an unterstützte Geräte. SCAN-VERLAUF ANSEHEN Greife auf gespeicherte Scans zurück und sieh dir frühere Gerätestände an. Zuletzt bekannte Angaben helfen dir, auch vorübergehend nicht erreichbare Geräte einzuordnen. MIT DER MAC-APP ZUSAMMENARBEITEN Übernimm Geräteinformationen aus der macOS-App über AirTransfer. So lassen sich beispielsweise MAC-Adressen, eigene Namen, Notizen und gewählte Symbole auf dem iPhone weiterverwenden. Die Übernahme bestätigst du selbst. HILFE DIREKT IN DER APP Die integrierte Offline-Hilfe erklärt die wichtigsten Funktionen und Abläufe. App und Hilfe sind in Deutsch, Englisch, Französisch, Italienisch und Rätoromanisch verfügbar. HINWEISE Für lokale Netzwerkscans benötigt die App Zugriff auf das lokale Netzwerk. Die Standortfreigabe wird zur Erkennung des verbundenen WLAN-Namens benötigt. Die verfügbaren Geräteinformationen hängen vom Netzwerk, den Antworten der Geräte und den Einschränkungen von iOS ab. MAC-Adressen können unter iOS nicht zuverlässig direkt ermittelt werden und lassen sich aus der Mac-App übernehmen. Ein offener Port weist auf einen erreichbaren Dienst hin und ist allein kein Nachweis einer Sicherheitslücke. Für AirTransfer müssen Mac und iPhone im selben lokalen Netzwerk verbunden sein.
