NMAP - Network Mapper : Scanning entire Network

For scanning the entire network use the following command....
 
Inorder to perform the network scan....you have to know the IP address of the gateway...in my case the IP of the gateway is 192.168.1.1 which is the common gateway IP address that all the network would have by default unless if you have changed it to something else....

$ nmap 192.168.1.*

The result of the command execution would be explained by the image given below....


the above image has all the required information about each of the hosts available in the network.....
