🌐 Atc.Network

A .NET 10 library for network communication, scanning, and remote desktop — batteries included.

🤔 Why Atc.Network?


🔌 TCP & UDP	Event-driven clients and servers with auto-reconnect, keep-alive, optional TLS, and configurable timeouts
🖥️ VNC Client	Cross-platform RFB protocol client — Raw, CopyRect, RRE, CoRRE, Hextile, ZRLE encodings
🔍 IP Scanning	Scan ranges or CIDR blocks with ICMP ping, hostname/NetBIOS/MAC resolution, vendor lookup, and port scanning
⏰ Wake-on-LAN	Wake sleeping devices with a magic packet, by broadcast or to a chosen subnet
🕰️ NTP Time	Get the time from an NTP server, with the local clock's offset and the round-trip delay
📹 ONVIF Cameras	Find IP cameras, and read their model and RTSP stream URLs
📡 Service Discovery	Find printers, cameras, speakers, TVs and other devices with mDNS / DNS-SD, SSDP (UPnP) and ONVIF WS-Discovery
🧩 Interface-first	Every component has an `I*` interface — built for DI and unit testing
📝 Structured Logging	`[LoggerMessage]` source generators throughout — zero-allocation, high-performance logging
🐧 Cross-platform	Windows, Linux, macOS — no `System.Drawing`, no P/Invoke, no WinForms

📦 Installation

dotnet add package Atc.Network

⚡ See It In Action

🔌 TCP Client

var tcpClient = new TcpClient(logger, "myserver.example.com", 4242);
tcpClient.DataReceived += data => Console.WriteLine($"📥 {Encoding.ASCII.GetString(data)}");

if (await tcpClient.Connect())
{
    await tcpClient.Send("Hello!");
}

🖥️ VNC Remote Desktop

var vnc = new VncClient("192.168.1.50", 5900);
vnc.FramebufferUpdated += (_, e) => RenderRegion(e.Rectangle, e.Framebuffer);

await vnc.Connect();
await vnc.Authenticate("my-password");
await vnc.Initialize();
await vnc.StartUpdates();

🔍 IP Range Scan

var scanner = new IPScanner(new IPScannerConfig
{
    IcmpPing = true,
    ResolveHostName = true,
    ResolveMacAddress = true,
    ResolveVendorFromMacAddress = true,
});

var results = await scanner.ScanRange(
    IPAddress.Parse("192.168.0.1"),
    IPAddress.Parse("192.168.0.254"),
    CancellationToken.None);
