The command you provided is used to perform an SMB (Server Message Block) enumeration and scanning on a remote server using the tool called smbmap. Here is a breakdown of the command and its components:

smbmap: It is the name of the tool/command that will be executed.
-u ${username}: It specifies the username to be used for authentication. You need to replace ${username} with the actual username you want to use. This is usually required to access the remote server.
--prompt: This flag prompts for the password after executing the command, allowing the user to enter the password securely without it being shown on the command line.
-H ${ip}: It specifies the IP address or hostname of the remote server you want to scan. You need to replace ${ip} with the actual IP address or hostname of the server.
-r: This flag enables recursive mode, allowing smbmap to scan subdirectories and folders on the server.

Overall, this command will launch smbmap with the provided options and connect to the specified remote server to perform an SMB enumeration with the given username.
