'''Nmap''' (Network Mapper) <ref>[[wikipedia:Nmap]]</ref> is a cross-platform (BSD, Linux, Mac, Windows) utility for network discovery and security auditing.

			== Backgroud ==
			Nmap is a useful tool to find the IP address of a device (e.g. if the device acquired the IP address via DHCP) or to debug connectivity problems (e.g. to check if a firewall blocks ports).

	== Network discovery example ==		== Network discovery example ==
	In a terminal window type:		In a terminal window type:

	nmap 192.168.1.*		nmap -v 192.168.1.*

	You can specify a specific IP address to scan a single host or use an asterisk (wildcard character) to scan an entire subnet. The resulting output contains a list of discoverd devices with their hostname, IP address and active network ports.		You can specify a specific IP address to scan a single host or use an asterisk (wildcard character) to scan an entire subnet. The resulting output contains a list of discoverd devices with their hostname, IP address and active network ports.

			== UDP scan example ==

			sudo nmap -v -sU 192.168.0.1

			This command scans the UDP ports of a specific device.
