zenmap: provide target list from file

[bernd-wechner]

nmap provides the useful -iL option. It would be nice if I could tell Zenmap:

"here's a list of all the devices I know I want scanned"

in a similar way.

I could do the whole LAN it seems by specifying an IP range, but I'd love them on the topology map by name and I can build lists easily from my DHCP static lease table for example of hosts I would like to scan in one fell (slow) swoop and save results for.

Zenmap just runs nmap underneath, and the command line is fully editable. You can add your -iL option just as you would with command-line Nmap. Alternatively, you can run Nmap with the -oX filename output option and then import that into Zenmap to view the results.

I'm leaving this open as an enhancement request for now, because I think it might be interesting to have a "browse to file" button for the "Target" input box.
