how do you Perform a batch ping

Asked by reffu

Is there any way on the local network to ping all the ip addresses between two numbers? (i.e 192.168.1.100-192.168.1.150) I want to know what ip addresses are used on my network.

thanks,

Hey,
the correct command to see the machines running in your lan is the following : nmap -sP 192.168.1.1-254

Please use nmap

Open a Terminal from the menu Applications->Accessories->Terminal and type:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nmap

give your user password when requested, you don't see nothing when you type it, then press enter.

nmap -sP 192.168.1.0/24

To get all parameters for nmap

man nmap

Hope this helps
