Network Mapping and Network Topology Discovery

To create a network map using LANState software, you need to add network devices (you can scan your network for saving your time), draw lines for linking devices, and draw areas for grouping devices. The ability of using lines and areas, a quantity of different icons for representing different types of network equipment significantly raise the visual perception of the created network map.

The program supports the automatic network topology discovery using the SNMP protocol. If you have managed switches with SNMP enabled on them, the program will download the topology information from the switches and draw a network map automatically.

 

Custom backgrounds can help you getting more evident look of your network maps.
