This episode expands on what I mentioned last episode where I helped a fellow MSP with a network discovery audit. I used both the NetAlly EtherScope nXG and a Domotz box to scan the network. We do a deep dive into my audit and what I provided my client afterwards.
For prospects, you can assure them that you won't need a password to "see" their network.
With the EtherScope you can do all this in just a few minutes:
- Scan up to 1024 IP Addresses
- Determine Device Types
- See both wired and wireless networks
- Use SNMP to look inside routers and managed switches
- Looks are what devices are connected to what switch
- Identify ports with errors
- Find bad subnet masks
