WhatsConnected assembles information from every device in the network to discover and display detailed physical connectivity, device type, asset/inventory and configuration information in an easy to understand network map.

Removing the need for manual documentation, WhatsUp Gold WhatsConnected enables network managers to focus on managing networks more effectively, combining the power of layer 2 discovery, mapping and visualization with WhatsUp Gold's comprehensive network management and monitoring.

In addition to discovery and visualization, WhatsConnected allows managers to understand device interdependencies; how they are affected by failures and changes to the network. With this detailed insight, managers can quickly pinpoint issues to minimize downtime and also configure the network to optimize performance.

WhatsConnected automatically generates fully customizable topology maps and a simple right-click on any topology map will export device information from WhatsConnected to WhatsUp Gold and automate the creation of consolidated MapViews along with performance and active monitors for the connected interfaces.

Any of these network maps can be published through Microsoft® Visio(TM) and the inventory information on devices gathered during the discovery process can be exported to external applications.
