Real-Time
Monitoring

See everything happening on your network. From topology mapping to packet capture — all in real time.

Pro

Interactive Network Map

More than a diagram — this is a live, always-on monitoring canvas. Build your network topology with drag-and-drop, then activate continuous ping monitoring to watch every device in real time. Devices turn green when reachable and red when they drop offline. Set your own ping interval (1–3,600 seconds), configure alerts for offline events, recovery, and high latency — and get notified instantly through audio alerts, syslog forwarding, log files, or email.

  • Continuous ping monitoring with user-defined intervals (1s–1hr)
  • Live status coloring — green (online), red (offline) per device
  • Multi-channel alerts: audio beep, syslog, log file, and email
  • Alert triggers: device offline, recovery, and high-latency threshold
  • 16 device types with auto-discovery — scan a subnet and add hosts automatically
  • 11 background shapes for grouping devices into zones and segments
  • Drag-and-drop placement, connection lines, custom labels and colors
  • Save and load maps as XML — pick up exactly where you left off
  • Real-time stat strip: Devices, Online, Offline, Alerts, Zoom

Pro

Live Connections Map

Watch active network connections in real-time. See where your traffic is going with a dynamic visualization that includes DVR-style playback for reviewing past activity.

  • Real-time active connection visualization
  • DVR playback — rewind and review past connections
  • Protocol and destination filtering
  • Connection metadata (PID, process, port)
  • Geographic mapping of remote endpoints

Pro

Network Automation

Auvik-style network management with four integrated tabs: Inventory, Changes, Alerts, and Traffic Analysis. Keep track of everything happening on your network.

  • Device inventory management
  • Change detection and logging
  • Configurable alert thresholds
  • Traffic analysis and trending

Pro

Packet Monitoring

Capture and analyze network packets in real-time with protocol-level filtering. A high-performance virtual model handles up to 10,000 rows without breaking a sweat.

  • Real-time packet capture and display
  • Protocol filtering (TCP, UDP, ICMP, ARP, etc.)
  • 10,000-row virtual buffer for high-volume capture
  • Packet detail inspection
  • Save captures for offline analysis (Pro)

Pro

Traffic Monitor

Real-time I/O graphing with protocol breakdown. Monitor your network throughput with a multi-layered chart showing six built-in protocol series plus custom filters.

  • Real-time inbound/outbound throughput graphs
  • 6 built-in protocol series (TCP, UDP, ICMP, etc.)
  • Custom protocol filters
  • 3-timer pipeline for smooth rendering
  • Historical trend scrollback

Pro

Service Monitoring

Discover and monitor active services and connections on your machine. See which ports are listening, what processes own them, and resolve remote endpoints with DNS.

  • Active service and connection discovery
  • Process-to-port mapping
  • DNS resolution of remote endpoints
  • Service state tracking (LISTEN, ESTABLISHED, etc.)
  • Auto-refresh at configurable intervals

Pro

WiFi Analyzer

Scan and analyze wireless networks in your environment. View SSIDs, signal strength, channel assignments, and identify interference sources.

  • SSID discovery and listing
  • Signal strength measurement
  • Channel assignment mapping
  • Encryption type detection
  • Interference identification

Frequently Asked Questions

What network monitoring tools does NetPilot offer?
NetPilot includes 7 monitoring tools: Network Map, Live Connections Map, Network Automation, Packet Monitoring, Traffic Monitor, Service Monitoring, and WiFi Analyzer. All provide real-time dashboards and visual output.
Can NetPilot create a visual map of my network?
Yes. The Network Map tool discovers and visually maps devices on your network. It shows connectivity, device types, and status. Lite supports up to 5 devices; Pro removes the limit.
Does NetPilot capture packets like Wireshark?
The Packet Monitor captures and displays live network traffic with protocol decoding and filtering. For deep PCAP analysis, the PCAP Analyzer utility can parse saved capture files. It complements rather than replaces Wireshark.
What does the WiFi Analyzer measure?
The WiFi Analyzer scans nearby wireless networks and displays signal strength, channel usage, frequency bands, encryption types, and interference levels. It helps optimize WiFi placement and troubleshoot connectivity issues.
Can I automate network monitoring tasks?
Yes. The Network Automation tool lets you schedule and run automated checks against network devices. Lite supports up to 20 devices; Pro removes the cap and adds advanced scripting options.
