NodeJS Network Scanner

A NodeJS library that can perform network diagnostic tests such as latency ping tests, IP address scanning, subnet calculating and SSL certifications and Vendor lookups

Installation

npm install --save network-scanjs

Usage

Initialize a new Class

const {NetworkScan} = require('network-scanjs')
const netScan = new NetworkScan()

Ping Address

const config = {
  repeat:4, //Specifies how many pings to send to the host, if null default is 1
  size:56, //Size of bytes in each packet sent, if null default is 32
  timeout:1 //Specifies the timeout of each ping in seconds, if null default is 1
}

netScan.poll('google.com',config).then((res)=>{
  console.log(res)
})

async function ping(){
  const poll = await netScan.poll('google.com',config)
  console.log(poll)
}

Expected output

{
  host: 'google.com',
  ip_address: '172.217.167.78',
  status: 'online',
  res_avg: '35.000ms',
  times: [ 36, 35, 35, 36 ],
  packetLoss: '0.000'
}

IP Scan

netScan.ipScan('192.168.1.0-24').then((hosts)=>{
  console.log(hosts)
})

async function runScan(){
  const scan = await netScan.ipScan('192.168.1.0-24')
  console.log(scan)
}

This will return an array of all the online hosts between the range (192.168.1.0 to 192.168.1.24)

Subnet Calculator

netScan.getSubnet('192.168.1.0/24').then((net)=>{
    console.log(net)
})

async function getSubnet(){
    const subnet = await netScan.getSubnet('192.168.1.0/24')
    console.log(subnet)
}

Expected output

{
  subnet: '192.168.1.0/24',
  subnet_bits: 24,
  subnet_mask: '255.255.255.0',
  network_address: '192.168.1.0',
  broadcast_address: '192.168.1.255',
  first_host: '192.168.1.1',
  last_host: '192.168.1.254',
  available_hosts: 254,
  host_range: '192.168.1.1-254'
}

Use different functions together

netScan.getSubnet('192.168.1.0/24').then((net)=>{
  netScan.ipScan(net.host_range).then((hosts)=>{
    console.log(hosts)
  })
})

async function ipScanSubnet(){
    const subnet = await netScan.getSubnet('192.168.1.0/24')
    netScan.ipScan(subnet.host_range).then((hosts)=>{
      console.log(hosts)
    })
}

MAC Address Lookup

Get the vendor of a custom MAC address

netScan.macLookup('FC-A1-3E-2A-1C-33').then((vendor)=>{
  console.log(vendor)
})

async function macLook(){
  const vendor = await netScan.macLookup('FC-A1-3E-2A-1C-33')
  console.log(vendor)
}

Expected output

Samsung Electronics Co.,Ltd

SSL Lookup

Get a websites ssl certificate

netScan.getSsl('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users').then((cert)=>{
  console.log(cert)
})

async function getCert(){
  let ssl = await netScan.getSsl('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users')
  console.log(ssl)
}
