Hi,
I once used a program called networkview to scan a Class A network. In
4 hours it was at 36% of the scan. I was scanning for "normal" ports
and a few others of my concern. Very impressive, very fast. I was
using a 3Mbps download 256Kbps upload connection at the time.
Some info from publisher:
NetworkView 3.1 Rating: 5/5
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
License: Shareware
Price: $79.00
Expires after 30 Days
Information:
This is a compact network discovery and management tool for the Win32
platform. It will discover all TCP/IP nodes and draw a full graphical
map, including routes, from DNS, MAC Addresses, SNMP, WMI and TCP port
information. It can also poll the network and send an e-mail when
nodes are unreachable.
With more than 11,000 entries in its SNMP and MAC address databases,
it can be used from a floppy disk. Full print and print preview
capabilities for maps and lists are included.
Note: SNMP must be installed, and administrator rights are necessary
for discovery and monitoring.
Additional Software Required:
SNMP
Cheap and fast. That's how I like it.
Note: I do not work for the publisher nor will I get money for this
(Damn, I should get money for this!).
Hope it helps.
