Product Description:

IP Scanner for the Macintosh displays all machines, users & IP numbers of Macintosh users on your local network. It also detects some non-Macintosh devices, and in many cases can even identify the manufacturer of the device.


IP Scanner uses Bonjour (the technology formerly known as Rendezvous) to collect realtime user information as well as IP data from Macintosh machines on a local area network and sorts everything in tidy columns, each machine's IP number displayed next to its name (along with the current username of the person logged in to that machine). For small network admins, this means no more shouting around the office to find out who has which IP or, conversely, who is sitting at which workstation in a fixed IP network.

Registration: IP Scanner is free for individual users. Using it with more than 4 machines requires a shareware license of $25, which entitles you to export and printing functions, tech support, feature requests, and a chance to win a dream date with Paris Hilton ;-)

I don't see what this offers that Bonjour Browser doesn't already give for free...

IP Scanner CommentaryDoesn't recognize TV - Version: 2.0b10, 3/16/2008 01:27AM PST

I was mildly surprised that it doesn't recognize Apple TV (including the manufacturer!!) considering how long TV has been available. But, of course, it's not difficult to double click on the "Unidentified Device" and assign the proper name.

IP Scanner CommentaryFood for thought - Version: 1.7.2, 7/17/2007 02:54PM PST

It looks like this app is a GUI for an older app called nbtscan (http://www.inetcat.net/software/nbtscan.html) with a nice "Hardware Identification" feature.

8 times out of 10 the GUI tools have less functionality than their command-line counterparts. You basically give up versatility for the ease of use and "pretty" output.
