Beginner's Corner / Re: Discover all IP addresses in a Local network.
« on: November 01, 2015, 07:51:02 am »I am not sure if I understood your question. You want to get all ip ranges a network uses with a scanner? Well, you could use any subnet scanner and let it scan all private ip address ranges (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_network).. lol. That will take a lot of time. The other option would be guessing the ranges. If your client is located in a 10.10.0.0/24 network you could try to scan the range 10.10.0.0/16 for example and see what you can find. Another way is to capture a good amount of network packets and go through them. I explained it here (its old and not very good.. but should give you an idea what I am talking about) https://evilzone.org/tutorials/(tutorial)-basic-network-discovery
Start to get creative.. maybe you can get those information from a L3 switch or router. HP for example has a default setting which looks like this "snmp-server community public unrestricted". Seen lots of devices where the admins did not remove that part of the config.
Hope that helps??
Consider it, You are at a company and want to know how many devices and ip ranges are exist. What do you do? Some tools like I said can help you but not working with VLANs very good.
