About:
Angry IP Scanner is a fast, cross-platform network scanner that probes IP addresses and ports to identify active hosts and services. It resolves hostnames, detects open ports, and can fetch other NetBIOS information. Its multi-threaded architecture makes scanning large networks efficient.
Key Features:
  • Cross-platform (Java-based) with native installers for macOS, Windows, and Linux
  • Fast multi-threaded scanning of IP ranges and ports
  • Hostname resolution, port detection, and NetBIOS information gathering
  • Extensible via open-source plugins and exportable scan results
Use Cases:
  • Auditing local networks for active devices and open ports
  • Troubleshooting connectivity and verifying firewall rules
  • Inventorying network hardware and services
Alternatives:
  • nmap – More powerful and scriptable scanning engine, but CLI-based and steeper learning curve
  • Zenmap – GUI for nmap that offers advanced scanning options, heavier than Angry IP Scanner
