NetAlertX/server/plugins/nslookup_scan

Overview

Plugin for device name discovery via reverse DNS (PTR) lookups, using the nslookup utility. Runs against IPs already discovered by a device scanner - it doesn't discover devices itself, only tries to attach a name to ones that don't have one yet. Functionally similar to DIGSCAN (both do a reverse DNS lookup, just via a different tool) - enabling both is redundant, pick whichever behaves better against your DNS server.

Usage

• Check the Settings page for details.

Notes

• See the Name resolution guide for how this fits alongside the other naming plugins (AVAHISCAN, NBTSCAN, DIGSCAN).
