Tracking IP Address

This command reports all IP addresses in the specified range. Whether it is used or not, the user has to scroll through a large amount of content in the command line window. In fact, we can avoid these troubles, just create a batch file, ask it to return only those unused IP addresses, and then enter the results of the command into a text file. The following describes the method:

Open Notepad
, enter the following command in the window:

@Echo off

date /t > IPList. Txt

time /t >> IPList.txt

echo =========== >> IPList.txt

For /L %%f in (1,1,100) Do Ping.exe -n 2 192.168.1.%%f Find

"Request timed out." & echo 192.168.1.%%f Timed Out >>

IPList.txt & echo off

cls

Echo Finished!

@Echo on

Notepad.exe IPList.txt

Save this file as IPTracker.bat and close the Notepad program.

It should be noted that in this batch file, the entire For...In...Do command consists of several commands connected by "&&". The command starts with "For" and ends with "Off", and the entire command must be on one line. Of course, if the user wants to use this method, the user's own IP address needs to be used to replace the IP address in the example.

Later, if the user wants to solve the DHCP problem, you can locate and double-click the IPTracker.bat file in the browser window, and then start an IP address tracking tool. This batch only finds those unused IP addresses, and Save the results in a Notepad file. (In this case, the saved batch file becomes an IP address tracking tool, which can be created once and used repeatedly.)

Note: This method is only available for Windows XP Professional (Pro)
