Fantastic, more of this. I don't know if I'm just missing it or what, but I'd love a GUI thing that showed all the devices on my network maybe even with a graph view.
I'm using an Eero router out of laziness and even it has some features here that I'd like to see more of in polished "home-user" style network tools; especially since it seems as if more are getting into the "homelab"/"selfhosted" thing.

If you're ok with that, use SNMP. If you want topology, you'll have to have an agent that logs into all your networking gear and parses the configs.

- jrm4 11mo ago"Reliably" is doing a lot of heavy lifting; I'm aware that with a combination of all the netstats and pings and nmaps there are ways to poke around.
- bongodongobob 11mo agoWhat do you mean "reliably" is doing a lot of heavy lifting? Idk what that means.
- 0134340 11mo agoDo you mean something like nmap's network topolgy view? https://nmap.org/book/zenmap-topology.html https://nmap.org/book/zenmap-topology.html Just for visualizing network topology on Linux, there's a lot of tools.
