Scanned IP Address or Range of IP Addresses

This is a value which is represented in one of the following notations:

CIDR notation (for example 192.168.170.0/24),

Single IP address (for example 192.168.170.21),

IP address range (for example 192.168.170.1-192.168.172.200),

Any combination of previous three separated by semicolon.

 

The discovery will try to reverse-lookup the DNS name for the IP addresses that have been found responding during the scan.

 

CIDR Examples

CIDR

First IP

Last IP

192.168.40.0/24

192.168.40.10/32

192.168.40.10

192.168.40.10

 

Address file

When specified, the list of IP addresses is read from a plain text file (where each line is a separate address to scan).

 

Custom SSH ports

If a non-standard SSH port should be used for non-Windows devices, it should be entered here. More than one value can be entered by using a semicolon.

Note:

Providing more than one port may have negative impact on the scan speed.
