Netscanner

Netscanner provides a comprehensive set of network diagnostic features through an intuitive text-based user interface (TUI). Users can list hardware interfaces, switch active interfaces for scanning and packet dumping, scan WiFi networks with signal strength charts, ping IPv4 CIDR ranges displaying hostnames, OUI, and MAC addresses, and perform packet dumps for TCP, UDP, ICMP, ARP (IPv4) and ICMP6 (IPv6), with start/pause functionality.

This tool is ideal for network administrators, penetration testers, and security researchers needing quick insights into local network topology, wireless environments, and traffic analysis without complex command-line scripting. Its TUI simplifies switching between tasks like interface management and real-time monitoring.

Netscanner runs on Kali Linux with minimal dependencies and a compact installed size of 11.86 MB, making it lightweight for live environments or quick deployments.

Netscanner operates via a modern TUI, enabling interactive selection of hardware interfaces for scanning and packet capture. It scans WiFi networks and visualizes signal strengths with charts, pings IPv4 CIDR ranges to resolve hostnames, OUIs, and MAC addresses, and captures packets using protocols like TCP, UDP, ICMP, ARP for IPv4, and ICMP6 for IPv6. Features include tick-rate and frame-rate controls for UI responsiveness, with pause/resume for dumps.
