Toolset Feature » Perform Ping Sweeps across an IP Address Range


  • Quickly scan a range of IP addresses
  • Display which IP address are in use (or are not)
  • Perform reverse DNS lookup

Ping Sweep enables you to scan a range of IP addresses to identify which IP addresses are in use and which ones are currently free. You can easily adjust the delay between pings, as well as the TTL (Time to Live).

Ping Sweep can also look up the DNS name for each IP address using your configured DNS and WINS servers. Additionally, Ping Sweep performs a fast ICMP sweep of your IP address range and presents the results in an easy-to-use worksheet.

An important feature of Ping Sweep is its ability to export or print results to any of the following:

  • Comma Delimited file (CSV)
  • Plain Text file (TXT)
  • HTML
  • Excel® Spreadsheet
  • Copy to the Clipboard

Ping Sweep is integrated into the other great tools and applications in Engineer's Toolset. If you "right click" on any scanned device within the results table you can immediately either Telnet to the device or launch the IP Network Browser application.


"The toolset is loaded with lots of great tools that makes your life as a network administrator a bit more simple (and that matters!!!)"
