  • Smart classification: Routers, phones, laptops, IoT devices, printers, cameras
  • OS detection via TTL analysis and port signatures
  • Confidence scoring for each identification
  • Batch processing from existing scan results

Wake-on-LAN

Wake sleeping devices remotely:

  • Magic packet generation and delivery
  • Favorites list for frequently woken devices
  • Multiple formats: AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF, AA-BB-CC-DD-EE-FF, AABBCCDDEEFF
  • Broadcast & directed wake modes

Scheduled Scanning

Automate your network monitoring:

  • Native integration: cron (Linux) + launchd (macOS)
  • Predefined schedules: Hourly, daily, nightly, weekly, monthly
