This script automates the process of performing comprehensive network scans using nmap. It is designed to facilitate both TCP and UDP network scans on a list of IP addresses, generating detailed logs and reports of the network's status.
The script accepts multiple IP addresses as arguments and performs the following actions for each IP:
- Executes a verbose TCP scan (
-sT) over all TCP ports (1-65535), with additionalnmapflags to detect service versions, operating system guesses, and runs standard scripts for banner grabbing, vulnerability detection, and exploitation where possible. - Conducts a UDP scan (
-sU) over a specified range of UDP ports (1-500), with verbose output, scan delay, and similar service and vulnerability scripts. - Outputs scan results to individual timestamped files in both plain text
.txtand XML.xmlformats for further analysis. - Logs the start and end of each scan, including any errors, to a consolidated log file with a unique timestamp.
To use this script, you need nmap installed on your system. If you don't have it, you can install it on most Linux distributions using your package manager. For example, on Ubuntu:
sudo apt-get install nmapOnce nmap is installed, you can run the script by passing the IP addresses as command-line arguments:
./nmapScan.sh <IP-address-1> [IP-address-2] ...Ensure that the script has executable permissions:
chmod +x nmapScan.sh
