You remember our discussion about choosing pink and how Pink has some limitation when it come to check
if the system is life or not in the sense that the system may be up but because it disables the ICMP
traffic or as ICMP protocol.
Even if you're pink or on the system you're not getting a reply so you will not be able to figure out
if the system is alive or not.
I can use and map for sweepings in Utah and know how many machines are up.
So let's see how to do that.
We can type and map
and map minus as in and then the IP on 9 to the 1 6 8 8 1 6 3 and then I can put one from 1 to 254 for
instance and I can see and it will scan.
Oh I'm sorry I and map
and let's see what will be getting.
So as you can see he got me all the UP system that IP is there mac address if those are virtual machine
or physical machine.
So he's getting me or he made a sweep from all the 255 machine or 254 which how many machine I have
up now.
Maybe the list is small because the amount that the number of machines have are like me maybe three
or four but in the real network this would be a very big list.
So can we organize that.
Can I have them saved to a file.
Because later on I'm gonna need source information to access them and I need to have them in an organized
way.
We can do that using another comment.
Let me first using the same comment but I a switch.
So let me clear my screen first.
And let's use the same common.
But I'm going to add minus all and capital G.
This is to get the output organized in a file and I'm going to name this file and map
resumed.
So he's gonna skin but also he gonna save the output inside this in map result files so
since it's kept on oh let's see.
Now you don't have to worry about memorizing and let's name it on the result.
Memorizing rows switch because as you're gonna see no small all but the file should be only one word.
Yeah so I got the same result except the result has been saved in a file by the name of result.
So if you check here you should find the result files that include this is the result fine.
So let's see what is inside this file.
So I can type.
Cat ceases to browse any file content and I can type result and let's see what we have inside see.
Hey get me the same output.
Except it's very organized so you can save this file because later on we're going to need the result
of the scanning that we did so and map can own can also be used for sweeping the network and identify
which computer are up.
