Network Scanning

Discover and scan devices on your Ethernet network.

Use Ethernet scanning tools to discover devices, services, and open ports on your network.

Device Discovery

Network Fingerprinting

Identify devices using service announcements (mDNS, SSDP, NBNS):

ethfp

See Network Fingerprinting for detailed information.

ARP Scanning

Discover active hosts on the network using ARP:

etharp

Returns a list of IP addresses and MAC addresses of devices responding to ARP requests.

Ping Scanning

Scan for active hosts using ICMP ping:

ethping

Sends ping requests to discover which hosts are online.

Service Discovery

Probe a host for running services and grab banners:

ethserv <ip>

Example:

ethserv 192.168.1.1

Attempts to connect to common ports and retrieve service information (HTTP, SSH, FTP, etc.).

Port Scanning

TCP Port Scanning

Scan specific ports on a target:

ethports <ip> <port>

Examples:

ethports 192.168.1.100 80
ethports 192.168.1.100 22,80,443

Scan Gateway

Scan the gateway (DHCP server):

ethports local 80

Scan All Ports

Scan all common ports on a target:

ethports 192.168.1.100 all

Traceroute

Trace the network path to a host:

ethtrace <ip>

Example:

ethtrace 8.8.8.8

Shows each hop (router) between your device and the target.

DNS Resolution

DNS Lookup

Resolve a domain name to an IP address:

ethdns <domain>

Example:

ethdns google.com

Statistics

Network Statistics

Display Ethernet interface statistics:

ethstats

Shows packet counts, errors, and other interface metrics.
