Hi, I think this is a fairly issue. I was running nmap scan using the latest 4.76 release using the standard nmap -A option to get the network map of all the devices in a couple of my subnets. After running the scan I realized that most of my embedded terminal servers(serial to TCP/IP converters) which are connected to Alarm panel and other devices have lost their original configuration. This resulted in complete loss of signal from these panels. I realize that the Network interface module manufactures are at fault at creating faulty hardware but I thought I should warn people not running nmap where they are terminal servers. Best regards, Ahsan _______________________________________________ Sent through the nmap-dev mailing list http://cgi.insecure.org/mailman/listinfo/nmap-dev Archived at http://SecLists.Org
