Visual Ping software

beer enigma

Anyone know of any decent software to give me a visible indication that all of my systems are up ? - I've used it through netware, but not come across any for windows ??

nmap - best of the best, or so I'm told.

I'm not sure what you mean by "visual" -- I guess you want a gui and not a commandline interface? just do a search for port scanner on google, theres loads. too many perhaps.

I used to have some software that gave you a screen full of 'traffic lights', with the target ip address under each one.

the programme would ping the devices one by one & if they responded first time the light would be green, respond on 2nd ping - amber and not responded by 3rd ping, the light went red....it was brilliantly simple, but I cant remember what it was. It was on a Novell network, so may have been a netware tool

3com have a network management tool - its a light version of transend
if you have any managed 3com devices it will draw in some of the links.
