By installing ScanNet - Network Scanner on your device, you get a handy and easy-to-use network scanner that does not require special knowledge when working in the default mode. Following functions and capabilities of the application will be useful for administrators and IT specialists: 1) The ability to check ports right during the search for hosts. Filtering by open ports allows you to quickly find the server you need on your network. 2) IP scanner supports 4 scan modes - arp read, icmp ping, udp ping, dns request. The ability to manually set a DNS server significantly expands the functionality of scanning private networks. 3) A wide range of settings allows you to manually set both the scanning mode and the used methods of name resolution - currently supported by DNS, mDNS, netbios. 4) Advanced search in the list of found hosts - you can search both by all available information, and by address, name, open ports. 5) Personalization - the ability to change the picture and the hostname displayed in the interface.
