Even though I don't personally believe this is a good idea (very limited use, confusion, etc.), it would solve the oft-repeated question of how to scan sequential blocks of addresses that don't line up on round byte boundaries. For example, nmap 192.168.10.100-255 192.168.11.0-99 could be written as nmap 3232238180-3232238435 although I can't believe anyone would care enough to do it this way. Dan P.S. This was likely brought up in response to a tweet by @mikkohypponen about 5 hours ago: https://twitter.com/mikkohypponen/status/72663582327832578 On Mon, May 23, 2011 at 12:48 PM, Paul Eubanks <pauleubanks () gmail com>wrote:
Nmap accepts 4-tuple and Hex notation for targets, why not decimal? e.g. $ ping 127.0.0.1 $ ping 0x7f000001 $ ping 2130706433 _______________________________________________ Sent through the nmap-dev mailing list http://cgi.insecure.org/mailman/listinfo/nmap-dev Archived at http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/
