ComputerName

Utility written in C# and XAML (Windows WPF) which displays the hostname, domain and IP addresses of an ednpoint. It can also be configured to test connectivity to a specified URL to determine a connection status. Useful for remote support technicians.

I have intentionally left out various parts of the project code from this as it contains icon files bespoke to my employer or other such information/assets which I cannot share on here. If you create a new WPF project in Visual Studio (or a tool of your choice) and impot the XAML and C# code you should be fine to go.

The application presents the following information on launch:

• Computer Hostname - retrieves the local computers hostname
• Active Directory Domain Name - retrieves the local computers Active Directory domain
• IP Address List - retrieves a list of all IP addresses on the local computer (can include virtualisation software addresses)
• Connection Status Indicator - provides a colour coded indication of network connection status
• Copy Button - Copies the visible information and any other attributes defined in code to the clipboard

The connection status indicator has the following possible colours:

• Green - All connections successful
• Amber - Internet connection successful but internal domain connection failed
• Red - All connections failed, no network connectivity detected

Examples
