LinkSight
Passive LLDP/CDP discovery for Windows, macOS, and Linux. Plug into a port and read the switch, the port ID, the VLAN, and the path upstream to the edge. Download →
NetPro.tools
Field tools for the people who rack the gear. Passive discovery, portable binaries, no account to create.
The tools
Section titled “The tools”Network Planner
The project plan and dependency tree for a network change — what has to happen, in what order, before anyone touches a device. In the workshop.
Switch Planner
Layout planning and port-config generation, so the change is decided before it is typed. In the workshop.
Why these exist
Section titled “Why these exist”Most network tooling is built for the person at a desk with a licence, a console, and a maintenance window. These are built for the engineer standing in a closet at 11pm with a laptop, an Ethernet cable, and no idea which port the last contractor labelled wrong.
The tools are desktop-first and portable: a single executable or a zip, no installer ceremony, no tenant, no account, nothing to deprovision. Downloads are plain links to GitHub Releases.
The line
Section titled “The line”One buyer — the MSP field engineer — across the life of a network change:
- See it. Discover what is actually there: link, port, VLAN, upstream path.
- Plan it. Map the change and its dependencies before the window opens.
- Change it. Produce the layout and the configuration to execute.
Not four unrelated utilities. One line, built in the open, released when each piece is worth carrying in a bag.
