ForgeNetzwork is a complete Network & System Administration Toolkit for iOS and macOS. Designed for network engineers, system administrators, IT professionals, and students, it brings together powerful tools for subnet planning, network diagnostics, LAN analysis, and SSH system administration - all in one app, with no account or cloud dependency.
SSH & SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION
• SSH Terminal - Connect directly to SSH-enabled systems with a full interactive shell
• Persistent Shell Sessions - Working directories, environment variables, and shell state persist just like in a native terminal
• ANSI Color Support - Display colored prompts, command output, and syntax highlighting
• Terminal Controls - Quick access to Tab, Esc, Ctrl+C, Ctrl+D, Ctrl+L, and arrow keys
• Hosts Manager - Save and organize multiple SSH hosts for quick access
• Command Reference - Search 40+ Unix/Linux commands with clear descriptions and one-tap copy
• Secure Direct Connections - SSH traffic goes directly between your device and the host you configure, with no third-party server in between
SUBNET CALCULATOR & PLANNING
• Subnet Calculator - Compute network address, broadcast, host range, subnet mask, and wildcard from any IP/CIDR
• Subnet Splitter - Divide any network into equal subnets by prefix or count
• VLSM - Variable Length Subnet Masking for efficient IP allocation
• IP Range to CIDR - Convert arbitrary IP ranges to minimal CIDR notation
• Wildcard Calculator - Generate wildcard masks for ACLs and firewall rules
• Subnet Reference Table - Quick-reference chart for /8 through /32 prefixes
• Route Summarization - Aggregate multiple routes into a single summary prefix
NETWORK DIAGNOSTICS
• Ping - ICMP echo with RTT statistics, packet loss, and min/avg/max reporting
• Traceroute - Visualize the full path to any host with per-hop latency
• Port Scanner - Probe common TCP ports on a target
• Network Monitor - Live dashboard tracking latency to multiple hosts with ISP information
LAN & DEVICE DISCOVERY
• LAN Scanner - Discover devices on your local network with IP, hostname, and open port detection
• Wake on LAN - Send magic packets to wake compatible machines
• Network Info - View your current IP, gateway, DNS, and connection details
DNS & WEB TOOLS
• DNS Benchmark Measure UDP latency to major DNS resolvers including Google, Cloudflare, Quad9, OpenDNS, AdGuard, and NextDNS
• DNS Lookup - Query A, AAAA, MX, TXT, CNAME, and other records for any domain
• WHOIS Lookup - Retrieve WHOIS information for domains and IP addresses
• SSL Inspector - Inspect TLS certificate details, expiration dates, and issuer chains for HTTPS hosts
IP UTILITIES
• IP Converter - Convert IPv4 addresses between dotted-decimal, binary, and hexadecimal
• Calculation History - Review and re-run previous subnet calculations
BUILT FOR IT PROFESSIONALS
• Native experience across iPhone, iPad, and macOS
• Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets for quick network status
• Optimized sidebar navigation for iPad and Mac
• Terminal accent color customization
• No account, no subscription, and no cloud dependency
• Available in English, Spanish, and German
Whether you're administering systems over SSH, designing network architectures, troubleshooting connectivity, managing your local network, or studying networking and system administration, ForgeNetzwork puts the tools you need in one place.
