Dipiscan

Dipiscan is a Windows desktop utility for scanning IP ranges and retrieving information about machines on a network. It can identify a machine using its IP address, NetBIOS name, or DNS, and show the network route used to reach another machine. Users can also monitor a machine for changes since an earlier scan and add custom commands to the right-click menu. The software is available as an installer or as a portable version that runs without installation. Supported Windows versions are 7, 8, 10, and 11. Dipiscan is freeware, listed as free. Its maker, Dipisoft, is described as a one-person operation run by Damien Ponnelle. The maker also notes that some antivirus tools may flag its .NET programs because they are obfuscated to prevent decompilation.

Dipiscan offers network scanning and machine lookup tools in a free Windows utility, with both installer and portable options. Be aware of the maker’s warning about possible antivirus flags.

Dipiscan may suit Windows users who need to scan network address ranges, look up machines, or check route and change information. Its portable version may be useful when installation is not wanted.
