Network Scanner JS

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-scanner-js

Usage

Initialize a new Class

const NetworkScanner = require('network-scanner-js')
///Using ES6
import NetworkScanner from 'network-scanner-js'

const netScan = new NetworkScanner()

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'
}

Cluster Ping

var array = ['google.com', 'vevadev.co.nz', 'youtube.com', 'wandelapp.com']
netScan.clusterPing(array, nodes => {
  console.log(nodes)
})

Expected output

[
  {
    host: 'google.com',
    ip_address: '172.217.25.174',
    status: 'online',
    res_avg: '36.000ms',
    times: [ 36 ],
    packet_loss: '0.000'
  },
  {
    host: 'youtube.com',
    ip_address: '142.250.67.14',
    status: 'online',
    res_avg: '37.000ms',
    times: [ 37 ],
    packet_loss: '0.000'
  },
  {
    host: 'vevadev.co.nz',
    ip_address: '65.9.134.126',
    status: 'online',
    res_avg: '14.000ms',
    times: [ 14 ],
    packet_loss: '0.000'
  },
  {
    host: 'wandelapp.com',
    ip_address: '65.9.134.81',
    status: 'online',
    res_avg: '15.000ms',
    times: [ 15 ],
    packet_loss: '0.000'
  }
]

IP Scan

netScan.ipScan('192.168.1.0-254', host => {
  console.log(host)
})

This will return each online host between the range (192.168.1.0 to 192.168.1.254) one by one

Web Portal

const hosts = ['192.168.4.10', '192.168.4.18', '192.168.4.34', '192.168.4.68', '192.168.4.93','192.168.4.11']
netScan.monitorCluster(hosts)

This will open a web browser UI that will show latency stats for each host

Traceroute

netScan.traceroute('google.com',(hop)=>{
  console.log(hop)
})

Expected output

{
  hop: 1,
  rtt1: '2 ms',
  rtt2: '2 ms',
  rtt3: '1 ms',
  ip: '192.168.1.254'
}
{
  hop: 2,
  rtt1: '7 ms',
  rtt2: '3 ms',
  rtt3: '3 ms',
  ip: '219.88.156.1'
}
{ hop: 3, rtt1: '*', rtt2: '*', rtt3: '*', ip: 'Request timed out.' }
{
  hop: 4,
  rtt1: '17 ms',
  rtt2: '15 ms',
  rtt3: '15 ms',
  ip: '122.56.113.4'
}
{

  rtt1: '15 ms',
  rtt2: '15 ms',
  rtt3: '16 ms',
  ip: '122.56.119.53'
}
{
  hop: 6,
  rtt1: '38 ms',
  rtt2: '39 ms',
  rtt3: '39 ms',
  ip: '202.50.232.110'
}
{

  rtt1: '40 ms',
  rtt2: '39 ms',
  rtt3: '39 ms',
  ip: '72.14.217.100'
}
{

  rtt1: '42 ms',
  rtt2: '39 ms',
  rtt3: '38 ms',
  ip: '108.170.247.33'
}
{
  hop: 10,
  rtt1: '39 ms',
  rtt2: '39 ms',
  rtt3: '39 ms',
  ip: '209.85.243.145'

  rtt1: '40 ms',
  rtt2: '39 ms',
  rtt3: '38 ms',
  ip: '216.58.199.46'
}

Speed Test

let connectionType = 'multi' //Specifies whether you want to test with multiple connections or a single connection, set variable to 'single' if you want to test a single connection, default is multi
netScan.speedTest(connectionType).then((speed)=>{
  console.log(speed)
})

370.24Mbps

SSH Client

netScan.sshCommands = ['hostname', 'ls']
const config = { host:'test.rebex.net', port:22, user:'demo', password:'password' }
//To include a private key just include it in you config object as privateKey: require('fs').readFileSync('/path/to/private/key/id_rsa')
netScan.ssh(config, (output)=>{
  console.log(output)
})

Expected output

Connected

demo@ETNA:/$ls
aspnet_client
pub
readme.txt
demo@ETNA:/$

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,

  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, host => {
    console.log(host)
  })
})

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

Web Socket Connections

Create a socket server

const server = netScan.netServer(PORT)
server.on('connection', socket => {
  socket.emit('request', /*message*/) // emit an event to the socket
  server.emit('broadcast', /*message to all connected sockets*/) // emit an event to all connected sockets
  socket.on('reply', (msg) => {/*recieve message sent from socket*/}) // listen to the event
})

Create a socket client

const client = netScan.netClient(ServerAddress)
client.emit('reply','message') //send message to the server
client.on('broadcast', (msg)=>{}) //Listen to incoming messages from server over the broadcast path

MAC Address Lookup

Get the vendor of a custom MAC address

  console.log(vendor)
}

Expected output

Samsung Electronics Co.,Ltd

DNS lookup

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)
}
