I think OP needs to define what he means by "view" Does he want a list of machines currently connected to his network (whether they are part of his domain or not)? Does he want a list of machines that are joined to his domain (whether connected to the network or not)? Does he want to know more about the machines than a list of names? What tools does he have at his disposal? How big is the environment? Does the environment include VPN? Wireless? Etc.
