Subnet math, port and MAC lookups, DNS, DNSBL, TLS cert inspection, public IP. No account.

What can you do with whatismynetip?

  • No account, no signup, no key.
  • No telemetry. Nothing about your usage goes anywhere.
  • Nothing of yours is read from disk. The only file it opens is its own bundled OUI table.
  • The local tools never open a socket. The network tools talk only to public services — Cloudflare and
  • "Is my port reachable from outside?" needs a machine outside your NAT to try the connection. That is

Install

Add this to your client's MCP configuration (Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code and others use the same "mcpServers" shape).

netip-mcp

The whatismynetip.com toolbox as tools your coding agent can call. Subnet math, "what runs on this port and should it be open", MAC vendor lookups, DNS and blocklist checks, the certificate a host actually serves, and the IP the internet sees you as.

Free, MIT, no account, no telemetry. The site's own tools run in your browser; this runs the same logic next to your agent.

lookup_port

The one I reach for most. The port pages on the site are opinionated — every port carries a verdict:

Port 3389/tcp+udp — RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol)

  Category   remote access
  Software   Windows Remote Desktop Services, xrdp, FreeRDP server, Windows Admin Center hosts
  Exposure   NEVER — do not expose to the internet

Internet-facing RDP is the most common initial-access route for ransomware crews, who
credential-stuff it around the clock; put it behind WireGuard, Tailscale or an RD Gateway …

Ask by number, or search: lookup_port with query: "redis" finds 6379. detail: true adds the full write-up and FAQ.

What it does not do

  • No account, no signup, no key.
  • No telemetry. Nothing about your usage goes anywhere.
  • Nothing of yours is read from disk. The only file it opens is its own bundled OUI table.
  • The local tools never open a socket. The network tools talk only to public services — Cloudflare and Google's DNS-over-HTTPS resolvers, Cloudflare's trace endpoint, Team Cymru's ASN DNS, and whichever host you point tls_inspect at. tls_inspect refuses anything that resolves to private or reserved space, so it cannot be turned on your own network.
  • "Is my port reachable from outside?" needs a machine outside your NAT to try the connection. That is what whatismynetip.com/port-checker does; a local tool cannot.

The port data and the calculators are the same ones the site uses, so the two stay in step.
