LanTopolog 2 2.14
Publisher's Description:LanTopolog 2 - LanTopolog 2.xx is an application that provides physical network topology discovery, visualization and monitoring Key features: - Automatic physical network topology discovery based on SNMP - Provide detailed and searchable physical network topology map so you can quickly isolate network connectivity failures - Topology views show which network devices are connected to each switch port; port connections are labeled with port numbers - Ability to auto-discovery new devices at they are added to your network - LanTopolog also includes network monitoring tools - Monitoring device's state (active/inactive) in real-time using ICMP - Network traffic monitoring - Generating alarms when there are failures in the network. - E-mail alerts notifying - Web browser-based access from anywhere in the network - Easy-to-use interface List of Changes:Version 2.13 from 2012-02-12Show all changesVersion 2.12 from 2011-12-15Fixed bug in import routine Version 2.11 from 2011-11-14Fixed bug causing incorrect topology discovery in rare cases Version 2.09 from 2011-08-30Fixed "index out of bound" error in rare cases Version 2.08 from 2011-07-27Improved algorithm for network topology discovery Version 2.07 from 2011-03-18Fixed bug with incorrect export of switch connection table to csv file Version 2.06 from 2010-11-17Fixed problem with MAC to IP resolving (in some cases) Version 2.05 from 2010-06-04Fixed some minor bugs

I needed to map the network topology of our small office. I wanted to figure out which machines were connected to which switch without having to figure out the physical connections by tracing each network port to the patch panel which is a bit of a mess. LanTopology looked just the job. It did find the managed switches I didn't expect it to find the unmanaged ones but that would be a cool feature. However that was it. I had a diagram of two switches connected together. Accurate but I already knew that. As for finding what was connected to the switches well no joy there so I had to do it manually. A network topology goes further than just the switches. I suspect that the network topoplogy is just implemented using a bit of SNMP and all the effort is in the presentation which is quite nice. It would be more useful in a larger office with lots of managed switches. If you need to find out your managed switch connections then this would help. But I would suggest if you did have that many managed switches then you would probably have some kind of documentation detailing the topology anyway.
