NetData

A System or Network Administrators best friend!

NetData is a simple tool for querying several network services on your Android. NetData gives the user the ability to query Whois domain registration databases, DNS records, and execute ICMP ping on a given host or domain name. NetData provides a simple yet elegant user interface to allow the user to quickly visualize the results of each query type.

NetData is ready for medium to large sized screens!

WHOIS QUERY

The Whois query allows the user to determine ownership and/or availability of a given domain name. The Whois query present the user with standard results provided by a Whois server.

ICMP PING QUERY

NetData implements a simple ICMP (ECHO_REQUEST/ECHO_REPLY) client. Given a hostname or IP address NetData will provide results of a ICMP ping query in a simple list view. Each list entry will indicate the sequence number of the reply from the host. It will also indicate the user the IP address of the target host and response time in milliseconds.

DNS QUERY

The DNS query reports several important pieces of information about a given host. Given a hostname NetData will determine the official name for the host, along with any aliases. NetData will provide all known IP addresses for the host. It will also provide MX records (with priorities) for any mail exchangers for a given host or domain. NetData will also notify the user of whether or not the answer from DNS was authoritative or not. All of this information is presented to user in a standard table view allowing the user to quickly find the information they need.

NetData's DNS query is also able to do reverse, or hostname to IP address, lookups.

NetData was designed for Android 2.2 or higher.
