Finally, you can put down your whiteboard markers and relax while LANsurveyor® does the network mapping for you. Leveraging a unique multi-level discovery technique, LANsurveyor automatically discovers your LAN or WAN and produces comprehensive, easy-to-view network diagrams that integrate OSI Layer 2 and Layer 3 topology data (including switch-to-switch, switch-to-node, and switch-to-router port connections). With two mouse clicks, this data can be exported into Microsoft Office® Visio® and easily shared with your colleagues.
Additionally, LANsurveyor will automatically track and account for changes to the network in real time with a unique continuous scan feature that can immediately detect new devices on the network and dynamically update the network map.

- Automatically discovers and diagrams network topology
- Supports generation of network maps in Microsoft Office® Visio®
