nmap is a utility for port scanning large networks, although it works fine
|
||
|
|
for single hosts. The guiding philosophy for the creation of nmap was TMTOWTDI
|
||
|
|
(There's More Than One Way To Do It). Sometimes you need speed, other times
|
||
|
|
you may need stealth. In some cases, bypassing firewalls may be required. Not
|
||
|
|
to mention the fact that you may want to scan different protocols (UDP, TCP,
|
||
|
|
ICMP, etc.). You just can't do all this with one scanning mode. Thus nmap
|
||
|
|
incorporats virtually every scanning technique known of.
