auto-discovery range question.

Post by tonyroth »

I believe that x.x.x.1-10 or x.x.x.0/24 are the only options that work presently. Is there a specific format you are looking to have work?

so using this 10.110.0.14-20 I should scan hosts 10.110.0.14 thru 10.110.0.20 correct? For some reason its not working!
any ideas?

when I go back and edit the scan target the following is in the box

10.110.0.40-60 10.110.0.40-60

that doesn't look right to me.

somehow i get the feeling the only method is the cidr based method which unfortuantely sucks.

I could have swore we discussed and patched in a resolve for non cidr notation, as nmap should allow that just fine. However doing testing I am running into the same issues. I will put in a bug report for this.
