ftp scanning is also subject to the limitations around TCP RST packets discussed in this document. When using ftp you should expect open ports to time out and closed ports to error out relatively rapidly. You can specify the protocol in the options object when instantiating NetMap. Edge/IE (send me a link if you find a source)īefore Firefox 61 (and maybe other browsers), it’s possible to get around this limitation by using the ftp protocol instead of http to establish connections.You can check the blacklists from these sources: A short timeout is usually a sign that the port is closed but in the case of blacklisted ports it doesn’t mean anything. If you try to scan those ports with netmap.js using the default protocol ( http) you’ll get a very short timeout. If the ratio delta/control is greater than a set value (default 0.8), the port is assumed to be closed (tl dr: a difference of more that 20% from the control time means the port is open).īrowsers maintain a blacklist of ports against which they’ll refuse to connect (such as FTP, SSH or SMTP). The control time is then used to determine the status of other ports. In order to determine if ports should be tagged as open or closed, netmap.js will scan a “control” port (by default 45000) that is assumed to be closed.The Theory section further down explains when this happens. In these cases the browser threw an error relatively rapidly on the open ports while the closed ports simply timed out. 192.168.99.100 is a host-only VM with port 8080 open and .uk is an external host with both 443 and 80 open.We can see that it took the browser about 5 times longer to error out on 80 compared to the other, closed, ports.
