    PC Discovery

    Reply
    What is the best way with the Engineers tool kit to discover all PC host names on a network?  I have tried Network Sonar but most of the results come back as unknown devices without any machine type or name in the query.  Most of the machines do not have snmp enabled which seems to be causing network sonar not to recognize them.  I also tried IP address manager but for a lot of IP's it displays the last response time but does not have a dns name or any other information.   Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.   Thank you,

    TG

     Would Ping Sweep work for you?

    Ping sweep, switch port mapper, ip address management would all work, but not until SNMP is enabled I believe.
