A simple XML template with ListView was used to display the Scanned Devices

Features:

• Second Counter for detecting the total time taken to scan
• An exception Handler if any error occurs
• We try to scan the following for each detected Device -- Device Name -- IP Address -- MAC Address -- Vendor Name
• If no details are found, it is returned with "UnKnown"

This is a base application, so additional features can be added to the same app for improved functionality

Dependencies:

You need Android Studio installed to run the same. You can install it from here

Follow the basic installation guideline. Once the setup is completed, do not go for creating a new app. Instead, clone this repo and locate it using "Open Project"

The Gradle Build will start executing once you open the project. Connect your device Wirelessly or uaing a USB cable, with USB debugging mode enabled. You can run the app to view the preview on your Physical or Virtual phone.

Known Bugs:

Mac Address and Vendor Name do not show up much times. It might be because of the limtations/restrictions by the router. Additional research and clarity on the same is required.
