Scan

Scanning

Probe ports, identify services, fingerprint OS behavior, and run vulnerability checks.

ripnet/src/scan.c and ripnet/src/stress.c

Port Scan

Scans a target host across a port range.

-M HOST
ripnet --scan HOST
ripnet --scan 192.168.1.1 --start-port 1 --end-port 1000
ripnet -M 192.168.1.1 -a 1 -e 1000 -T 500
Options
  • --start-port PORT
  • --end-port PORT
  • --timeout MS
Defaults
  • start port: 1
  • end port: 1024
  • timeout: 1000 ms

Service Scan

Attempts to identify the service on a specific host and port.

-O HOST -P PORT
ripnet --service-scan HOST --port PORT
ripnet --service-scan example.com --port 80
ripnet -O example.com -P 443
Defaults
  • port: 80
Notes
  • Use --port for the port; HOST:PORT is not split by the parser.

OS Fingerprint

Attempts remote OS fingerprinting.

-B HOST
ripnet --os-fingerprint HOST
ripnet --os-fingerprint example.com
ripnet -B example.com

Vulnerability Scan

Runs vulnerability detection for a host and port pair.

-V HOST:PORT
ripnet --vuln-scan HOST:PORT
ripnet --vuln-scan example.com:80
ripnet -V 192.168.1.10:443
Notes
  • Unlike most port-aware commands, --vuln-scan expects HOST:PORT.
