jNetTool is a Swiss-knife for networks. It includes whois and nslookup queries, ping and traceroute, an IP address calculator, and a visual network planing-tool.

Features:

Whois:

With jNetTool-whois you find out who owns a domain or IP-address. Please enter a domain without "www" - for example "ventruba.com".

DNS-Lookup:

With jNetTool-ns-lookup you find out the nameserver for a domain, or which is the ip for a domain (A-record) or which mailserver is responsible (MX-record).

Ping:

A jNetTool-ping is "knocking at the door" of a computer. You will see if a computer is answering and how long will a package take.

Traceroute:

Which way will a package take from you computer to the target and how long will it take itemized for each station - jNetTool-traceroute will tell you.

Portscan:

jNetTool-portscan: Which service offers the computer? Please take care with this, some owner would misinterpret this as an attack! Use ownly if allowed from the owner!

IP-Calculator:

This nice tool shows you the networkclass of an IP-address, or you can calculate subnets, how many hosts are in a subnet, and so on....

Network planning:

The jnetool-networkplaningtool is not for real business, for the moment.
