NAME

scan - a scanning script to gather port and OS information from hosts

SYNOPSIS

 scan.pl [--nmap <NMAP_EXE>] <IP_ADDR> [<IP.ADDR> ...]
 scan.pl --xml <SCAN.XML>

DESCRIPTION

This script uses the nmap security scanner with the Nmap::Parser module in order to run quick scans against specific hosts, and gather all the information that is required to know about that specific host which nmap can figure out. This script can be used for quick audits against machines on the network and an educational use for learning how to write scripts using the Nmap::Parser module. This script uses the -sV output to get version information of the services running on a machine. This requires nmap version 3.49+

OPTIONS

These options are passed as command line parameters.

--nmap

The path to the nmap executable. This should be used if nmap is not on your path.

-h,--help,-?

Shows this help information.

--xml

Processes the given nmap xml scan file. This file is usually generated by using the '-oX filename.xml' command line parameter with nmap.

TARGET SPECIFICATION

This documentation was taken from the nmap man page. The IP address inputs to this scripts should be in the nmap target specification format.

The simplest case is listing single hostnames or IP addresses onthe command line. If you want to scan a subnet of IP addresses, you can append '/mask' to the hostname or IP address. mask must be between 0 (scan the whole internet) and 32 (scan the single host specified). Use /24 to scan a class 'C' address and /16 for a class 'B'.

You can use a more powerful notation which lets you specify an IP address using lists/ranges for each element. Thus you can scan the whole class 'B' network 128.210.*.* by specifying '128.210.*.*' or '128.210.0-255.0-255' or even use the mask notation: '128.210.0.0/16'. These are all equivalent. If you use asterisks ('*'), remember that most shells require you to escape them with back slashes or protect them with quotes.

Another interesting thing to do is slice the Internet the other way.

Examples:

 scan.pl 127.0.0.1
 scan.pl target.example.com
 scan.pl target.example.com/24
 scan.pl 10.210.*.1-127
 scan.pl *.*.2.3-5
 scan.pl 10.[10-15].10.[2-254]
