In today's world it seems more and more companies are doing the "Free" products in order to get you to buy their better products, i.e. Vmware Server, Virtural PC, XenServer, etc. Solarwinds did just that. They have a product called Free IP Address Tracker that does just what the title says. Scans network sub-nets that you specify and lets you export or enter information that you need such as reservations that you have setup. This is great if you need a tool to actively track your networks IP address so you don't accidentally assign one that is already in use. Of course you could do this with a spreadsheet but this will also gather SNMP information off the boxes and help you fill out your spreadsheet a little faster to give to your boss. Of course there are other programs out there that do IP Scanning such as Angry IP Scanner(not a virus!), Blue's IP Scanner, etc, but it's free, it's got a good set of features. I have used other programs such as The Dude which does a nice graphical representation of your network, granted if you wanted to pay for cool features you could always go with LanSurveyor or Network View for IP management and scanning. Anyways give it a try, who knows, it might make you into an IT Hero!?
