Comparing scan results between sessions 24 February 2016, 01:06 |

I'm using your scanner as my main network discovery tool. It's great, but I'm missing scanning history. I need to know what IPs are gone offline since last week scan. I know, it can be done in Live Display mode, but then scanner must be running all the time.
For that reason I still must use additionally LookAtLan scanner, which shows offline IPs with red icon and online IPs with green. It also shows on every scan what new IPs are found and what IPs are gone offline. If your scanner could show IPs status same way it would be perfect tool for me.

For this specific task there is way to do it with our Network Scanner too, provided you saved the result from the last week:
- Load the scan done last week saved to an XML file.
- Choose Actions - Rescan All Displayed Computers from the main menu.
- You can also then choose Actions - Rescan Previously Undiscovered Computers to reveal any new computers.

Thank's for quick answer.
I tried your suggestions, quite may clicks. I must do two scans to have complete overview:
2. I load saved file (clear the currently displayed report), Rescan all computers listed in file - to see disappeared IP's
3. I load saved file, Rescan previously undiscovered computers - to see new computers.
I still think ideal would be on every scan to see difference with last scan (automatically saved), new IP's in bold, disappeared IP's in grey
or at least add option to Reascan all computers to see new and disappeared IP's with one scan in Rescan/validate dialog.
