Python-port-scanner

A simple port scanner that scans the ports based on user input built using python.

Prerequisites

• You must have python 3 installed in your system.

How to Run:

• Clone the repository to your pc
• Navigate inside the python-port-scanner folder
• Open Cmd
• Type "python portscanner.py target_ip_address" replace target_ip_address with an ip of your choice.

Sample Ouput

-left: The program is run to scan the ip address for open ports -right: A local host is started at 127.0.0.1 and port 8000

The program runs on a single thread and is slow but can be made faster by adding multithreading to the program.
