masscan:tldr:7884e
The given command is using the "masscan" tool to perform a network port scan. Here is the breakdown of each component:
-
"${0-0-0-0-0}" - This represents the target IP address range to be scanned. The format "0-0-0-0-0" usually implies scanning all IP addresses (0.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.255) and can be changed to a specific IP address or range as per your requirement.
-
"--ports ${0-65535}" - This specifies the range of ports to be scanned. In this case, it scans all ports from 0 to 65535, covering the entire range of TCP and UDP ports.
-
"-output-format ${select}" - This option configures the output format of the scan results. The "${select}" parameter indicates that the format selection is determined by the user or a configuration.
-
"--output-filename ${filename}" - This sets the name of the file where the scan results will be saved. The "${filename}" parameter can be replaced with the desired name of the output file.
In summary, this command utilizes masscan to scan all IP addresses in the range 0.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.255, scanning all ports from 0 to 65535. The scan results are saved to a file with a user-defined name.
