Using Backtrack: Network Mapping: Identify Live Hosts: Netifera

Netifera

Purpose:

Network enumeration and packet sniffing.

Discussion:

Like Autoscan-Network, Netifera provides a nice GUI for scanning networks, with customizable workspaces and sub-spaces. It’s pretty, simple, and pretty simple to use. I did find that if I added hosts to an existing scan, when it was re-scanned Netifera didn’t detect them, or at least report them.

One potentially highly useful feature is that you can detect hosts (like nmap), then sniff traffic and save it, which is a nice feature pair.
