LAN Topology Mapper
Get deeper insight into your network with a LAN topology mapper
Automate network diagramming with a LAN topology mapper
When it comes to mapping your LAN topology, you want to make sure you get a complete image of your network without needing to add each device manually. With SolarWinds® Network Topology Mapper (NTM), creating a complete LAN topology map is built to be simpler.
NTM’s LAN mapper can automatically discover devices on your LAN network to create a clear map representing the devices and their relationships. With NTM, you can scan your whole network or define a seed device or specific IP address ranges to scan smaller sections of your network. The solution then uses industry-standard methods to discover your devices, including SNMP, WMI, ICMP, CDP, VMware, and more.
Create multiple LAN topology maps from a single network scan
SolarWinds Network Topology Mapper makes it easier to create multiple LAN topology maps from a single network discovery scan. Not having to rescan to create more network maps can help you save bandwidth, resources, and time.
If you need a more comprehensive network map, NTM is also built to perform multi-level network discovery to help you better understand the relationships between the devices on your network.
Schedule automated scans to keep your LAN network diagram up to date
Keeping track of devices constantly being added or removed from a LAN network can be challenging. SolarWinds Network Topology Mapper can help make it easier to map devices by keeping your network diagrams automatically updated.
The LAN diagram software can automatically detect any changes made to your devices, including routers, switches, servers, desktops, VoIP phones, wireless access points, and more. NTM can also ID new devices and is built to collect metrics on both old and new network devices. The LAN mapper can then update your topology maps to reflect the changes detected in the latest scan to ensure your topology maps are up to date, which can be scheduled to complete at regular intervals, such as daily, weekly, and monthly.
Demonstrate regulatory compliance with a LAN network mapping tool
LAN network topology maps are about more than just gaining visibility into your network—they’re also important for demonstrating regulatory compliance. SolarWinds Network Topology Mapper is specifically built to be FIPS 140-2 compliant and can help you more easily demonstrate compliance with regulations that require you to maintain an up-to-date network topology map.
The LAN diagram software is designed to create maps that are PCI, SOX, HIPAA, and FIPS 140-2 compliant. With SolarWinds NTM LAN mapping tool, you don’t have to scramble to account for your devices when it’s time for an audit.
More easily view device connection information for VLAN, layer 2, and layer 3
SolarWinds NTM is built to allow you to simply rollover links between devices located on the topology and diagramming maps to quickly see connection information, such as interface name, port number, SFTP details, and link speed of data passing between devices. NTM can provide connection information for multiple views, including layer 2 (link layer), layer 3 (IP layer), virtual infrastructure (VLAN), and custom/manually created connections. Simply check the relevant box in Connection Display Options to select the appropriate connection information view.
