Nmap: Network Exploration and Security Auditing Cookbook - Second Edition

How it works...

The option -T is used to set the timing template in Nmap. Nmap provides six timing templates to help users tune the timing and performance arguments. The available timing templates and their initial configuration values are as follows:

• Paranoid(-0): This template is useful to avoid detection systems, but it is painfully slow because only one port is scanned at a time, and the timeout between probes is 5 minutes:

--------------- Timing report ---------------   hostgroups: min 1, max 100000   rtt-timeouts: init 300000, min 100, max 300000   max-scan-delay: TCP 1000, UDP 1000, SCTP 1000   parallelism: min 0, max 1   max-retries: 10, host-timeout: 0   min-rate: 0, max-rate: 0 ---------------------------------------------
