WhoIsConnectedSniffer

WhoIsConnectedSniffer is a network analysis app that allows you to identify the devices connected to your network without the need to perform active scans. Unlike other apps that send packets to detect devices, WhoIsConnectedSniffer relies on passive packet capture, analyzing the traffic flowing through your network adapter to gather information about connected devices. This makes it less intrusive and reduces the possibility of alerting monitored devices. WhoIsConnectedSniffer requires Npcap to function correctly, as this tool is responsible for monitoring the network.

Protocols used for detection

To identify devices on the network, WhoIsConnectedSniffer uses various network protocols such as ARP, UDP, DHCP, mDNS and BROWSER. By listening and analyzing the packets associated with these protocols, the tool can detect a wide range of devices communicating on the network, providing a detailed view of the connected elements without generating additional traffic.

Detailed device information

Once WhoIsConnectedSniffer detects a device on the network, it displays relevant information such as IP address, MAC address, device name, description, operating system, network adapter manufacturer and IPv6 address. Among the devices that WhoIsConnectedSniffer can detect are tablets, smartphones, computers, TVs, laptops, routers, security cameras, smart devices and more. Whether you are connected via WiFi or Ethernet, WhoIsConnectedSniffer will be able to detect it.

Export of collected data

WhoIsConnectedSniffer gives you the option to export the list of detected devices in different formats, including tab-delimited, comma-delimited, XML and HTML files. This functionality is especially useful if you need to document, analyze or share the information collected on the devices connected to your network, allowing you to easily integrate it into other systems or reports.
