HostProbeOutcome

Result of one IHostProbe against one address. Each probe fills only what its technique can learn: ARP the MAC, ICMP the round-trip, TCP the open ports.

public sealed record HostProbeOutcome : IEquatable<HostProbeOutcome>

1. Constructors

1.1. HostProbeOutcome(IP, ProbeMethod, bool, MacAddress?, TimeSpan?, IReadOnlyCollection<Port>)

Result of one IHostProbe against one address. Each probe fills only what its technique can learn: ARP the MAC, ICMP the round-trip, TCP the open ports.

public HostProbeOutcome(IP Address, ProbeMethod Method, bool Responded, MacAddress? Mac, TimeSpan? RoundTrip, IReadOnlyCollection<Port> OpenPorts)

Table 1. Parameters
Name	Type	Description
Address	IP	The probed address.
Method	ProbeMethod	Technique that produced this outcome.
Responded	bool	True when the host proved present.
Mac	MacAddress?	MAC address, when the technique resolves one (ARP).
RoundTrip	TimeSpan?	Round-trip time, when the technique measures one (ICMP).
OpenPorts	IReadOnlyCollection<Port>	Ports found accepting connections (TCP).

2. Properties

2.1. Address

The probed address.

public IP Address { get; init; }

2.2. Mac

MAC address, when the technique resolves one (ARP).

public MacAddress? Mac { get; init; }

2.3. Method

Technique that produced this outcome.

public ProbeMethod Method { get; init; }

2.4. OpenPorts

Ports found accepting connections (TCP).

public IReadOnlyCollection<Port> OpenPorts { get; init; }

2.5. Responded

True when the host proved present.

public bool Responded { get; init; }

2.6. RoundTrip

Round-trip time, when the technique measures one (ICMP).

public TimeSpan? RoundTrip { get; init; }

3. Methods

3.1. NoResponse(IP, ProbeMethod)

Outcome for an address that did not answer this technique.
