How to use
When using IP scan tool user must choose what it wants to scan for:
- certain IPv4 prefix
tool will attempt to scan all the addreses or address set in address.
- interface of the router
tool will attempt to listen to packets that are "passing by" and attempt to compile results when something is found
There is a possibility to set both but then results may be inconclusive
