What is WhoIsConnectedSniffer?

WhoIsConnectedSniffer

WhoIsConnectedSniffer is a handy little app that helps you keep an eye on your network. It’s super light and efficient, making it easy to see which computers and devices are connected by checking their IPs and MAC addresses.

What Makes WhoIsConnectedSniffer Different?

Now, don’t mix it up with a regular network scanner. This tool doesn’t scan like others do; instead, WhoIsConnectedSniffer listens in on the packets zipping around your network. After that, it does a quick analysis and gives you a full report about the connections it finds.

Getting Started with Packet Listening

To act as a packet listener (that's what we call it), this app needs a capture driver. You can use options like WinpCap or Microsoft Network Monitor. These drivers help WhoIsConnectedSniffer actively sniff the traffic.

Diving into Protocols

This tool uses various protocols like ARP, DHCP, UDP, mDNS, and BROWSER to get its job done. It automatically finds the capture drivers installed on your computer, letting you pick one for monitoring.

WiFi Monitoring Made Easy

If you're using Microsoft Network Monitor, you’re in luck! It even helps track WiFi connections if you're on that type of network. Plus, you can choose which adapter to use when sniffing!

Your Connection Report Awaits

The moment you start capturing data with WhoIsConnectedSniffer, it jumps right into action! You’ll get to see all the computers and devices currently linked to your network.

The report covers loads of details: IP and MAC address, device name, description, operating system info, network adapter brand, detection count, protocols found, and the date each device was first and last spotted.

Saving Your Data for Later Use

You can even export this information as a text file or an HTML report to check out later for deeper analysis. All this data is incredibly useful for network admins but also great for home users looking to know what's happening on their networks.
