Nmap has an option that simplifies and streamlines the process of performing TCP connect scans:
- To perform TCP connect scans with Nmap, the -sT option should be used with the IP address of the host to be scanned, as follows:
- In the example provided, a TCP connect scan was performed on the TCP port 80 of the specified IP address. Similar to the technique used with Scapy, Nmap listens for a response and identifies open ports by analyzing the TCP flags that are activated in any responses received. We can also use Nmap to perform scans on multiple specified ports by passing a comma-delimited list of port numbers, ...
