Description : Denial Of Service Capable Auditing of Networks
doscan is a tool to discover TCP services ony our network. It is
designed for scanning a single ports on a large network. (There are
better tools for scanning many ports on a small set of hosts, for
example nmap.)
doscan uses a random scatter technology to distribute the load across
the network. Within a given prefix, hosts are not scanned sequentially,
but in a random‐looking, but reproducible order. As a result, doscan
will not stress‐test the network edge (just the next hop).
