-A – Enable OS detection, version detection, script scanning, and traceroute.

-T4 – uses second highest timing template (1-5).To finish the article I will cover the various parameters and what they cause NMAP to do. The Regular Scan (number 9) has no options sent to NMAP. There is a 'Command' line which shows the parameters being sent to NMAP after selecting a Profile. Slow Comprehensive Scan (-sS -sU -T4 -A -v -PE -PP -PS80,443 -PA3389 -PU40125 -PY -g 53 -script 'default or (discovery and safe)').

Quick Scan Plus (-sV -T4 -O -F -version-light).Intense Scan, all TCP Ports (-p 1-65535 -T4 -A -v).Intense Scan plus UDP (-sS -sU -T4 -A -v).Initially, Zenmap has ten basic Profiles which are: The next main item you can set is the Profile. IP Addresses which are not used or the system is not powered on will be bypassed. A group of systems can be entered with the addressing of '192.168.0.1-200' to scan the 200 IP Addresses. The Target is used to specify a single system or a group of systems to scan with NMAP. The first item to be aware of is the Target. After 'zenmap' starts you should see a program as shown in Figure 1.įigure 1 shows a few areas which can be changed by you when using the program.

From a terminal, type the command 'sudo zenmap' and then enter the root password when prompted. When opening 'zenmap' it should be started with root permissions. To start using NMAP we need to open 'zenmap'. The commands are: 'ncat -version', 'nping -version' and 'zenmap -version'. NOTE: You can also test the other utilities with the option '-version' after the utility name. If you are moving to version 7.40 that should be fine, but some screen shots may differ. To test the currently installed version of NMAP use the command 'nmap -version'. For any screen shots I use in this and following articles I will be using NMAP 7.10.

Move the RPM files to your HOME folder in temporary folder and try there. NOTE:When using the file 'alien' for RPM to DEB conversions any errors usually result from lack of permissions.

download the RPM file for your architecture (32-, 64-bit).

For Debian based systems perform the following: The RPM versions can be downloaded for Red Hat distros (nmap, nping, ncat and zenmap). The repository contains version 6.40 or 7.10. NOTE: At the time of writing this article the most up-to-date version of NMAP was 7.40.

To install on a Red Hat based system use the commands: To install the two on a Debian system use the following commands: NOTE: With either type of Linux distro you may want to also download a Graphical User Interface (GUI) for the command-line based NMAP utility. The NMAP application can be downloaded to a Linux system from the normal repository using the following commands for you distro type. The main website for the NMAP application and documentation can be found at. NMAP was originally written for Linux but can be operated on Windows, Solaris, HP-UX, BSD, AmigaOS and IRIX. Further detailed information can be gained to produce complete 'network map'. NMAP can be used to scan a network of hosts and services and audit security. NOTE: With any information based on security issues please use this information responsibly. If you understand how hackers and the like can infiltrate your network then you should be able to devise a plan to stop them. What should be remembered is the Strategic Offensive principle of war which states: 'the best defense is a good offense'. Whether your network is one machine or a few thousand or more, security is an issue for everyone. Anyone in a business or home environment needs to be able to understand and check the security of their network.
