Make the scan speed faster

[Vincent Chen]

Hi All,

I would like to make the AutoRecon scan speed faster. How do I suppose to do？

ex. autorecon -m 100 -mp 20 --heartbeat 300 -vv --single-target X.X.X.X

Could you share the command for the reference？

@vincentchenroc if you're talking about Nmap scan speed, then you can do this easily using the --nmap-append option, for example if you wanted Nmap to always use -T5 and --min-rate=5000 you could do the following:

autorecon --nmap-append="-T5 --min-rate=5000" ... X.X.X.X

You can also set this in the config file by adding this at the top:

nmap-append = '-T5 --min-rate=5000'

That will cover the Nmap commands, but for other things (e.g. gobuster) you'll have to look at autorecon's help output (-h) and there you will find options to set the threads for specific plugins:

--dirbuster.threads VALUE
--subdomain-enum.threads VALUE
--vhost-enum.threads VALUE

For any other plugins, you would have to edit the plugin file itself and change the command.
