The Lansweeper Community will be under construction as of March 2nd, 2026. This site will move to a static version—join us on Reddit to keep the conversations going. More info here.
When scanning your assets, Lansweeper automatically determines the asset type based on factors like open ports, protocols, and the information it retrieves during the scan.
Lansweeper is capable of scanning a wide variety of network devices — including printers, cameras, switches, access points, and more.
However, the completeness of the scan depends on having the right ports open, proper permissions, and valid credentials. In most cases, SNMP is the protocol that provides the most comprehensive data for network devices.
