Network Admins: What are your daily BEST PRACTICE

https://hak5.org/ - anything from here. Although those devices are for pen testing, they can be useful in troubleshooting too. For scanning nmap and Fing on phone/tablet. What else, flashlight, multitool, a knife, crocodile Dundee size.

@mrwright4hire I use the same or Angry IP Scanner, that is for windows, mac and Linux but depends on Java.

Once again, stepping into the role of Network Admin. I'm curious to know what are the new ideas / tools of today or is the daily tasks still the same. Any resources are welcome. Whenever I do a job, I'm passionate about it and would like to show my best.
What are some great free tools out there? What are some bare necessity tools you think an Admin for today's network world should have in their bag of network weapons?
Thank you for your time, input and tips,
Mr. Wright.Are you asking us how to do your new job?

Negative @Obsolesce. I'm asking exactly what I'm asking. I'm curious about new tools and if there are any new best Practice.
Besides, even if I or anyone was asking that, it is my understanding that this site is about building, encouraging and empowering one another in the field of IT.
Trying to make one look bad or expose someone's weaknesses as oppose to just either contributing to the question or not saying anything at all is NOT Best Practice for positive communication.

You should always have good old WireSHark, nmap included and a great network scanner.
@dbeato what do you use for a network scanner? I use Advanced IP Scanner.
I use nmap, so much faster and easier.

Generally a full subnet scan using nmap is much slower than Advanced IP Scanner.
I'm annoyed that I even know this right now, such is the state of the documentation we have.

You aren't using Nmap properly... It's so configurable and definitely faster than any GUI scanner.

While true, I'd have to install nmap first and the boss has advanced-ip-scanner already there, sad as it is.

I bet I can install it faster than you can use Advanced IP Scanner, lol.
choco install nmap -y
It's SO fast.

Being your typical American MSP and going after billing hours instead of good business.
