Angry IP Scanner is a fast, open-source IP address and port scanner with a friendly GUI built on Eclipse SWT. It scans networks for hosts, open ports, and other device information across Linux, Windows, and macOS.

Use cases

  • scan a local network for active devices
  • find open ports on hosts in an IP range
  • discover devices connected to my router
  • audit which IPs are in use on a subnet
  • check if a specific port is reachable on remote machines
  • inventory devices on a network with a GUI tool

When to choose

  • you need a fast, cross-platform GUI network scanner
  • you want a simple tool to enumerate live hosts and open ports
  • you prefer a lightweight Java app that runs on Linux, Windows, and macOS

When to avoid

  • you need deep vulnerability scanning or penetration testing features
  • you require scriptable headless scanning in CI pipelines
  • you need wireless-specific discovery like Wi-Fi channel analysis
