I thought it was for stealth scanning, but IDLE makes sense.

I'm not confident about this one. I thought "-si" was for silent scans, but now I'm questioning if it could be something else.

I feel like we did a question similar to this in class, and it was about IDLE scans. I think that's the right answer.

I remember something about stealth scans, but I can't recall if "-si" specifically refers to that. Maybe it's a different option?

I think the "-si" option is related to conducting an IDLE scan, but I'm not completely sure. It sounds familiar from our practice sessions.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know we can add editable grids, but I'm not sure if that's the best approach here. I'll need to think it through carefully.

Hmm, I'm not sure about the difference between f-band and d-band networks. I'll need to think this through carefully.

I'm a little confused by the different function declaration styles in the options. I'll need to double-check my understanding of the syntax to make sure I select the right ones.
