### **Scan a Domain's Subnet**

* Scans a network range based on a hostname's resolved IP address using CIDR notation. Nmap first resolves the hostname to an IP and then applies the subnet mask.

```
nmap -v microsoft.com/24
```

### **Scan IPv6 addresses**

* Scans targets using IPv6 addresses. The `-6` flag can be added to force IPv6 scanning.

```
nmap -v -6 2607:f8b0:4009:80c::200e
