FastIpScan

FastIpScan is a small-sized and portable software application that you can use to scan for network ports in a specific range.

It does not come packed with complex options or configuration settings, so it can be handled by all types of users, even the ones with no prior experience in networking utilities.

Since there is no setup pack involved, you can drop the program files to any directory on the hard disk and just click the executable to run.

There is also the possibility of saving FastIpScan to a USB flash drive or similar storage unit, in order to run it on any PC with minimum effort and no prior installers.

What's more, the tool does not create new entries in the Windows registry, nor additional files on the hard disk, leaving no traces behind after removal.

The GUI is represented by a standard window with a neatly organized structure, where you can specify a start and end IP address, and start the scanning procedure with the click of a button.

Results show all identified IP addresses within the given range, along with the response time (if any) and last date and time of update for each entry. Expanding an entry reveals the IP's port numbers.

It is possible to select an item and copy the IP address to the Clipboard via the context menu. Unfortunately, FastIpScan does not integrate an option for printing or exporting the entire list to the Clipboard for further scrutiny and safekeeping.

We have noticed a minimal CPU and RAM consumption during the tool's runtime. It is very responsive to commands and finishes a scan job pretty fast. No error dialogs were shown in our testing, and the tool did not hang or crash. FastIpScan gets the job done and can be used by anyone.
