Ping sweep pings a range of IP addresses to see which ones are live. This helps determine the range of IP addresses mapped to live hosts.

I'm leaning towards the IP sweep. Seems like it would give you the most information about the network, and that's what we're after, right?

Haha, yeah, Telnet sweep? What is this, the 90s? I'm going with ping sweep. It may be basic, but it gets the job done.

Telnet sweep? Really? Who even uses Telnet anymore? I think we can safely eliminate that one, am I right?

I dunno, man. I feel like an IP sweep might give you a more comprehensive view of the network. But then again, port sweeps can be pretty useful too. Decisions, decisions...

Ping sweep is the way to go, if you ask me. It's tried and true, and you don't have to worry about any fancy tools or techniques.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I'm not sure if I should go with the classic ping sweep or try something more advanced like an IP sweep. What do you guys think?
