LANtools

Overview of the 3 LANtools on different displays

Management and monitoring software for small and medium-sized networks

From initial setup to troubleshooting: LANtools enable you to efficiently manage, monitor, and analyze smaller infrastructures with R&S®LANCOM devices from a central Windows application. LANconfig supports administrators in configuring devices, while LANmonitor and WLANmonitor provide cross-site monitoring and fast analysis of network and Wi-Fi issues – from individual sites to distributed infrastructures. This makes it easy to handle routine network tasks efficiently and narrow down faults more quickly.

Downloads

Note: The LANmonitor download also includes WLANmonitor.

WLANmonitor

Centralized real-time Wi-Fi monitoring

Centrally monitor and analyze your Wi-Fi infrastructure. WLANmonitor provides a clear overview of information about access points, WLAN controllers, and connected clients. Detailed status information, flexible grouping options, and comprehensive analysis functions simplify the management of even large Wi-Fi installations and help administrators quickly diagnose faults. Benefits include:

  • Central monitoring of access points, WLAN routers, WLAN controllers, and clients in wireless networks
  • Monitoring of extensive parameters such as signal strength, IP address, network profiles in use, and transmission rates
  • Convenient split-view interface
  • Display of unknown access points and WLAN clients (rogue AP/client detection)
  • Monitoring of security settings for all WLAN devices

Note: WLANmonitor is integrated into the LANmonitor download.
