About Network Topology Mapper
SolarWinds Network Topology Mapper is a tool for documenting and visualizing network infrastructure.
SolarWinds Network Topology Mapper is a tool for documenting and visualizing network infrastructure. It excels by automating the process of network mapping, turning complex connections into clear, editable diagrams. For a Business Analyst or Network Architect, its value lies in compliance and visibility—it ensures you always have an accurate view of what is connected to your infrastructure. It is a robust, professional solution for organizations that require precise and up-to-date documentation for security and planning.
Pros & Cons
- Provides an accurate, real-time view of what is actually on the network
- The ability to export directly to Visio makes it easy to share maps with non-IT stakeholders.
- Ensures that network documentation is never stale.
- Does not require software to be installed on the target devices.
- What takes days to draw by hand in Visio takes minutes with NTM.
- It is a standalone tool; it does not use a central database
- Configuring scan ranges and discovery methods requires foundational networking knowledge.
- Only as good as the SNMP/WMI credentials provided; without them, device details are limited.
- The software must be installed on a Windows machine.
