Question:

Please have network foot-printing and scanning simulation, with screen shot and comments to submit

You can use NMAP to discover/scan, with simulation screen shot, save it to word file and add some
comments, then upload to submit

Answer:

NMAP is used to run the diagnostic and scan of an IP/Domain


I have used google.com as a Target to run scan on
Running a normal aggressive scan with following command

• Command: nmap -A -sT -T4 -v google.com p 1-65535


o -A → Aggressive Scan
o -sT → TCP Scan
o -T4 → Level
o -v → Detailed Output
o Google.com → Domain
o p → Port
o 1-65535 → No of Ports
