Script `targets-ipv6-multicast-mld`

Script types: prerule
Categories: discovery, broadcast
Download: https://svn.nmap.org/nmap/scripts/targets-ipv6-multicast-mld.nse

Script Summary

Attempts to discover available IPv6 hosts on the LAN by sending an MLD (multicast listener discovery) query to the link-local multicast address (ff02::1) and listening for any responses. The query's maximum response delay set to 1 to provoke hosts to respond immediately rather than waiting for other responses from their multicast group.

Script Arguments

targets-ipv6-multicast-mld.interface: Interface to send on (default: the interface specified with -e or every available Ethernet interface with an IPv6 address.)
targets-ipv6-multicast-mld.timeout: timeout to wait for responses (default: 10s)
max-newtargets, newtargets: See the documentation for the target library.

Example Usage

nmap -6 --script=targets-ipv6-multicast-mld.nse --script-args 'newtargets,interface=eth0'
