The user knows ports 21, 514 and 3128 are open. For example, he knows that there is an FTP server in port 21. But the user wants to learn the FTP software and all other services. To detect software and versions, the-sV(Version) flag can be passed, as shown in the screenshot below...

Nmap exploits this with three scan types: Null scan (-sN) Does not set any bits (TCP flag header is 0) FIN scan (-sF) Sets just the TCP FIN bit. Xmas scan (-sX) Sets the FIN, PSH, and URG flags, lighting the packet up like a Christmas tree. These three scan types are ...
From basic ping scans to advanced version detection and scripting, Nmap in Kali Linux is a versatile and powerful tool that should be a part of every security practitioner’s toolkit. By understanding how to use Nmap effectively and incorporating it into your security workflow, you can better un...
The ACK scan probe packet has only the ACK flag set (unless you use --scanflags). When scanning unfiltered systems, open and closed ports will both return a RST packet. Nmap then labels them as unfiltered, meaning that they are reachable by the ACK packet, but whether they are open or...
The first example sends a single packet that only contains the TCP header flag SYN set (-S) to a single target (192.168.1.1) using the port for Modbus/TCP (-p 502): # hping3–S–p 502 192.168.1.1 This next example performs a function similar to thenmap–sSoption described earlier, ...
To perform a stealth scan, specify the-sSflag: nmap -sS scanme.nmap.org Note that stealth scanning is slower and less aggressive than other types of scanning, so it may take some time to get a response. Version Scanning Another useful Nmap feature is that it allows you to see application...

The-sn(Ping sweep) flag instructs Nmap to omit port scan, limiting to host discovery. nmap -sn 192.168.0.* In the next screenshot, the user implements two wildcards to scan the two last octets. The-sP(Ping sweep) flag is equivalent to the above (The-snflag is replacing-sP), ...
