dnmap is a distributed Nmap<\/a> framework which can hand off Nmap scans to several clients. It reads an already created file with Nmap commands and send those commands to each client connected to it.<\/p>\n

The framework use a client\/server architecture. The server knows what to do and the clients do it. All the logic and statistics are managed in the server. Nmap output is stored on both server and client.<\/p>\n

\"dnmap<\/p>\n

Usually you would want this if you have to scan a large group of hosts and you have several different internet connections (or friends that want to help you).<\/p>\n

Features of the framework<\/h3>\n

Clients can be run on any computer on Internet. Do not have to be local cluster or anything.
\nIs uses TLS protocol for encryption.<\/p>\n

dnmap_server features<\/h4>\n
    \n
  • If the server goes down, clients continue trying to connect until the server gets back online.<\/li>\n
  • If the server goes down, when you put it up again it will send commands starting from the last command given before the shutdown. You do not need to remember where it was.<\/li>\n
  • You can add new commands to the original file without having to stop the server. The server will read them automatically.<\/li>\n
  • If some client goes down, the server will remember which command it was executing and it will re-schedule it for later.<\/li>\n
  • It will store every detail of the operations in a log file.<\/li>\n
  • It shows real time statistics about the operation of each client, including:\n
      \n
