Enumerate computers
This tool searches for domains and/or workgroups on your network.
Once the domains are defined, you can scan their contents to catalog
the constituent computers and their relative details (e.g., OS, other
information from NETBIOS). Computers can be enumerated from:
• The Active Directory – Fast method which will also enumerate
computers that are currently switched off.
• The Windows Explorer interface – This method is slower and will
not enumerate computers that are switched off.
NOTE: When performing scans, you must use access accounts that
have rights over the Active Directory.
