nmap

Network exploration tool and security / port scanner.

Some features only activate when Nmap is run with privileges.

=> More information.

• Check if an IP address is up, and guess the remote host's operating system:

nmap -O {ip_or_hostname}

• Try to determine whether the specified hosts are up and what their names are:

nmap -sn {ip_or_hostname} {optional_another_address}

• Like above, but also run a default 1000-port TCP scan if host seems up:

nmap {ip_or_hostname} {optional_another_address}

• Also enable scripts, service detection, OS fingerprinting and traceroute:

nmap -A {address_or_addresses}

• Assume good network connection and speed up execution:

nmap -T4 {address_or_addresses}

• Scan a specific list of ports (use -p- for all ports 1-65535):

nmap -p {port1,port2,…,portN} {address_or_addresses}

• Perform TCP and UDP scanning (use -sU for UDP only, -sZ for SCTP, -sO for IP):

nmap -sSU {address_or_addresses}

• Perform full port, service, version detection scan with all default NSE scripts active against a host to determine weaknesses and info:

nmap -sC -sV {address_or_addresses}
