  <h1>NETworkManager</h1>
  <p>
    <b>A powerful open source tool for managing networks and troubleshooting network problems!</b>
  </p>
  <p>
    Connect to remote systems and manage your network and server infrastructure using tools like Remote Desktop (RDP), PuTTY (SSH, Telnet, Serial), PowerShell (WinRM), TigerVNC (VNC), or AWS Console (AWS SSM). Analyze, troubleshoot, and obtain detailed information about your network and systems with features such as the WiFi Analyzer, IP Scanner, Port Scanner, Ping Monitor, Traceroute, DNS Lookup, and LLDP/CDP Capture (and many <a href="https://borntoberoot.net/NETworkManager/docs/features">more</a>) — all within a unified interface. Hosts and networks can be saved in encrypted profiles and used across all features.

   ```PowerShell
   # Clone the repository
   git clone https://github.com/BornToBeRoot/NETworkManager

   # Navigate to the repository
   cd NETworkManager

   # Clone the submodules
   git submodule update --init
   ```

3. Open the project file `.\Source\NETworkManager.sln` with Visual Studio or JetBrains Rider to build (or debug)
   the solution.

   > **ALTERNATIVE**
   >
   > With the following commands you can directly build the binaries from the command line:

## Code Signing Policy

NETworkManager uses free code signing provided by [SignPath.io](https://signpath.io/) and a free code signing certificate
from [SignPath Foundation](https://signpath.org/).

The binaries and installer are built on [AppVeyor](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/BornToBeRoot/networkmanager) directly from the [GitHub repository](https://github.com/BornToBeRoot/NETworkManager/blob/main/appveyor.yml).
Build artifacts are automatically sent to [SignPath.io](https://signpath.io/) via webhook, where they are signed after manual approval by the maintainer.
The signed binaries are then uploaded to the [GitHub releases](https://github.com/BornToBeRoot/NETworkManager/releases) page.

## Privacy Policy

This program will not transfer any information to other networked systems unless specifically requested by the user or the person installing or operating it.

NETworkManager has integrated the following services for additional functions, which can be enabled or disabled at the first start (in the welcome dialog) or at any time in the settings:

- [api.github.com](https://docs.github.com/en/site-policy/privacy-policies/github-general-privacy-statement) (Check for program updates)
- [ipify.org](https://www.ipify.org/) (Retrieve the public IP address used by the client)
- [ip-api.com](https://ip-api.com/docs/legal) (Retrieve network information such as geo location, ISP, DNS resolver used, etc. used by the client)

## 📝 License

NETworkManager is published under the [GNU General Public License v3](https://github.com/BornToBeRoot/NETworkManager/blob/main/LICENSE).
