Viewing Nmap Scan Results

When an Nmap scan is complete, you can view a table of scan results.

You can manipulate the results view depending on the information you are looking for. The page you see when you access scan results differs depending on the workflow you use. You can use the predefined workflow, which includes a table view of scan results. You can also create a custom workflow that displays only the information that matches your specific needs.

You can download and view the Nmap results using the Nmap Version 1.01 DTD, available at http://insecure.org.

You can also clear scan results.
