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
