Introduction
Website Overview
This website is a clear and structured documentation for a set of IT tools developed as part of the Pegase project. It serves as a user guide for various application windows, each having a specific function related to the system or the network.
Website Purpose
To provide visual and detailed help to Pegase users to understand and effectively use each tool. Everything is presented as accessible mini-tutorials, in read-only mode, with no need for complex configuration.
Scan IP Addresses
Overview
The Network Scanner window allows you to detect all devices connected to your local network (Wi-Fi or Ethernet). It’s a useful tool for:
- Seeing who is connected to your network
- Identifying IP and MAC addresses
- Detecting unknown devices
It is integrated into your Pegase tool and works in just a few clicks.
Mini Tutorial: How to Use This Window
- Open the Scanner
Launch the Network Scanner tool. A window will open with a simple interface made up of three areas:
- A Scan button
- A Copy button
- A list of detected devices
- A progress bar showing the scan’s progress
- Start the Scan
Click the Scan button to begin.
- The scan starts automatically.
- The progress bar advances to visually show the completion percentage.
- Results appear in real time in the table.
- Read the Results
- No.: device number
- IP: the local address of the device on your network
- MAC: unique identifier of the network card
- Name: if available, the device name
- Copy to clipboard
Click on the Copy button to copy the result to the clipboard.
- Reuse the Tool
If you’ve added or disconnected a device:
- Click Scan Network again to refresh the list.
Good to Know
- The tool does not change anything on your network: it is 100% passive and only reads accessible information.
- If a device has no displayed name, it’s not a bug — some devices simply don’t respond to that request.
- All types of devices may appear: PCs, phones, printers, smart TVs, etc.
