Networking Question

ally_uk

Hi guys just a quick question regarding networking. Using the windows command line if I type in tree I get information about my local computer now the question I propose to you guys is this

If I am working on a unfamiliar network and I need to find out the I.P address of server etc is there like a network tree command which will show me all the devices on the network and there I.P addresses or is there a program I have to use with the SNMP protocol?

Many Thanks

Ally

I usually have my clients servers on the same IP number IE 192.168.1.2 for the domain server and next up for exchange or whatever. I usually have a range for servers - one for networked printers and one for workstations that need static addresses.


arp /a will tell you all the machines on the network and if they are static or dynamic.

Angry IP Scanner is a good tool.

Cyberkit is the program i use. Scans a IP range and gives the hostname
