It supports ping scanning (determine which hosts are up), many port scanning techniques (determine what services the hosts are offering), version detection (determine what application/service is runing on a port), and TCP/IP fingerprinting (remote host OS or device identification). It also offers flexible target and port specification, decoy/stealth scanning, SunRPC scanning, and more. Most Unix and Windows platforms are supported in both GUI and command line modes. Several popular handheld devices are also supported, including the Sharp Zaurus and the iPAQ. Changes: This release contains many feature enhancements and bugfixes. Fragmentation scanning has been fixed and extended, and many scan types (including IP Proto and FIN) have been improved. The service detection database has grown, and a new "closed|filtered" state added for Idlescan. Nmap now prints the number (and total bytes) of raw IP packets sent and received when in verbose mode. An XSL stylesheet is included to render XML output as HTML. A few crash bugs, memory leaks, and portability problems were resolved. Winpcap was upgraded for the Windows version.
