Many firewalls are inspecting packets by looking at their size in order to identify a potential port scan.This is because many scanners are sending packets that have specific size.In order to avoid that kind of detection you can use the command --data-length to add additional data and to send packets with different size than the default.In the image below we have changed the packet size by adding 25 more bytes.


nmap --data-length 25 192.168.8.105
