Review

LANsurveyor is network management software which any network manager, administrator, engineer, or designer can use to automatically diagram networks of any size. The LANsurveyor map provides a graphical interface so you can manage your network from anywhere on the network.
So, what you can do with LANsurveyor? Let’s take a look to the following list:
• You can draw a map showing the logical connectivity of your entire network.
• You can make queries of network objects for such information as Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) data, Responder client data, and data from EMC Dantz's Retrospect Client.
• You can add icons to your map to represent network objects.
• You will be alerted when new devices are added to your network.
• You can launch other applications using the map as an interface.
• You can create reports about any items on the map.
• You can scan your network for intruders using one or more maps as the baseline and automatically disable network access for rogue nodes.
Besides, you can acquire the LANsurveyor's Responder client add-on, with which you’ll be able to:
• Manage remote Windows, Linux, and Mac OS nodes from the LANsurveyor map, including starting and stopping applications, distributing files and folders, restarting and shutting down, and synchronizing clocks.
• It will help you plan your backup and disaster recovery strategy.
With regard to compatibility , in order to use LANsurveyor you must meet the following requirements:
• A Pentium-class computer with 256MB memory
• Windows 2000, XP, 2003, or Vista (professional, workstation, or server editions)
• A connection to an IP-based network
Additionally, some LANsurveyor features require the following:
• Responder client software add-on installed on nodes for reports and client management.
• Nodes that understand SNMP (called "SNMP Agents") and the community string (or password) for SNMP devices you wish to report on. Some of the SNMP Agents used by LANsurveyor are:
• MIB-II SNMP agents that exist on nearly all IP routers and many IP devices.
• Printer MIB SNMP agents that exist on some IP printers.
• Bridge MIB SNMP agents to determine switch port connectivity.
• Repeater MIB SNMP agents to determine hub port connectivity.
• Microsoft SQL Server or Microsoft SQL Server Express to store SNMP configuration and Responder client information in LANsurveyor's Repository.
Advantages
  • It's easy to use.
  • There's a free trial available.
  • It includes full local help information.
Disadvantages
  • It's available in English only.
  • It's a little expensive for small businesses or networks.
