Find them all (nmap usage)

Nmap is a useful port scanner for networking stuff. You can download Nmap from their official site. click here

For linux users, you can directly use your mirror sites to download.

ex: In debian type

# apt-get install nmap

Wanna do something crazy ?



check your current public IP. click here

and type this in your terminal. ( If you are using Windows cmd, type in cmd )



you have to change 192.168.1.0 to your subnetwork address (you can get it from your public IP) and give the range as 255.

If there is no error, the scan should start.

It will show all the public IPs within the range which are up.

PS: This is Nmap Ping Scan - go no further than determining if host is online
