Binaries are available for those who do not wish to compile Nmap from source. Both traditional command line and graphical (GUI) versions are available to suit your preference.

Easy: While Nmap offers a rich set of advanced features for power users, you can start out as simply as 'nmapВ -vВ -A targethost'.

Portable: Most operating systems are supported, includingВ Linux,В Microsoft Windows,В FreeBSD,В OpenBSD,В Solaris,В IRIX,В Mac OS X,В HP-UX,В NetBSD,В Sun OS,В Amiga, and more.

Powerful: Nmap has been used to scan huge networks of literally hundreds of thousands of machines.

This includes many port scanningВ mechanisms (both TCP & UDP), OS detection, version detection, ping sweeps, and more.

Flexible: Supports dozens of advanced techniques for mapping out networks filled with IP filters, firewalls, routers, and other obstacles.It was even featured in twelve movies, including The Matrix Reloaded, Die Hard 4, Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, and The Bourne Ultimatum. Nmap was named вЂњSecurity Product of the YearвЂќ by Linux Journal, Info World, LinuxQuestions.Org, and Codetalker Digest. In addition to the classic command-line Nmap executable, the Nmap suite includes an advanced GUI and results viewer (Zenmap), a flexible data transfer, redirection, and debugging tool (Ncat), a utility for comparing scan results (Ndiff), and a packet generation and response analysis tool (Nping).

Nmap runs on all major computer operating systems, and official binary packages are available for Linux, Windows, and Mac OS X. It was designed to rapidly scan large networks, but works fine against single hosts. Nmap uses raw IP packets in novel ways to determine what hosts are available on the network, what services (application name and version) those hosts are offering, what operating systems (and OS versions) they are running, what type of packet filters/firewalls are in use, and dozens of other characteristics.

Many systems and network administrators also find it useful for tasks such as network inventory, managing service upgrade schedules, and monitoring host or service uptime.

Nmap ('Network Mapper') is a free and open source (license) utility for network discovery and security auditing.
