Comment on I found a weird IP address on my network that had transmitted an insanely small amount of data. I put the address in my browser and got this. what the heck am I looking at?

  Thanks as you can tell, I’m not an expert in any of this.

  I will run this as you described.

  I did the nmap based on input from ChatGPT, it had me do a Ping base scan with nmap. It turned up nothing because that IP address did not return a Ping.

  This has me really curious.

  I’m concerned that the website I opened in Safari on my phone is bringing up a cache on my browser and is not actually live.

  I tried to open it from an iPad and it did not load. Iit still loads off my phone even though I have rebooted everything.

    In case it helps your troubleshooting, ICMP (ping) is typically disabled by default on Windows.

      Thanks. It is not responding to ping.

        Your command needs to look something like this:

        nmap -Pn -sVC -p- (IP) -o scan

        -Pn skips the availability check per ping

        -sVC performs a version and a script scan so you get more information

        -p- scans ALL ports

        -o puts out a file called scan.nmap

        If you want you can share that output afterwards for further info.
