Find switches without password

[simonottosen]

Hello,

Is it possible to use Lansweeper to scan the network for switches without password and username?
If this is possible, how is this done?

Thank you in advance,
Simon

Lansweeper does not report on whether or not switches have a password. I don't think this is even technically possible, as we need to actually log in with a valid SNMP community string/password to pull information from the switch.

Hello,

Thank you, but i would like to be able to create a report from Lansweeper that shows me exactly what LAN Equipment is without password.

You can use SNMP.
