A security analyst needs to perform a scan for SMB port 445 over a/16 network. Which of the following commands would be the BEST option when stealth is not a concern and the task is time sensitive?

The correct answer is B. Nmap -p 445 -n -T4 -open 172.21.0.0/16. Port is specified with -p. -T4 is aggressive (fast) mode. Aggressive mode speeds scans up by making the assumption that you are on a reasonably fast and reliable network. https://nmap.org/book/performance-timing-templates.html
