Usage

Usage:
    NimScan <host | IPs> -p:<portX>-<portY> [--timeout=<time>] [--files=<limit of file descriptors>] [-a]
    NimScan <host | IPs> -p:<port>
    NimScan <host | IPs> -p:<port1>,<port2>,<portN>
    NimScan (-h | --help)
Options:
    -h, --help            Show this screen.
    -p, --ports           Ports to scan. [default: 1-65,535]
    -a, --all             Use rawsockets to find filtered/closed/open ports (Takes longer and limited to 10,000 ports).
    -t, --threads         Number of threads per scan.
    -f, --files=<limit>   File descriptors per thread limit.
    -i, --ignore          Ignore ping latency check.
    --timeout=<time>      Timeout to add to the latency [default: 1500].

Examples

Scan range between 1 to 5000 ports

NimScan 10.0.0.0/24 -p:1-5000 

Scan specific ports

NimScan 10.0.0.1-10.0.0.10 -p:80,443,445

Show closed/filtered/open using rawsockets

Guide

Exported functions

scan(char * host, int * ports, int size);
scanner(char * host, int * ports, int size, char * parameters);

Options

• host - IP/HOST to scan
• ports - Ports to scan
• size - Size of ports array
• parameters - Parameters to give for the scanner as mentiond above under Usage

Create

#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
    NimMain(); // A MUST! 

    int ports[] = {1, 445, 8080, 3389, 135, 139};
    int size = sizeof ports / sizeof ports[0];
    
    scan(<IP/HOST>, ports, size); // Scan given ports with default configuration (timeout = 1500ms, files = 5000)

    scanner(<IP/HOST>, NULL, 0, "<arguments>"); // Scanning all 65K ports with given arguments
    return 0;
}

Compile

Make sure NimScanToC.a is in your program's folder.
