- Closed ports are reported immediately. Windows repeated the connection request after the host refused it and reported a closed port only after about 2 seconds. The connection request is sent once. [#3653](https://github.com/BornToBeRoot/NETworkManager/pull/3653)
8888
- New **Attempts** setting for the port scan (default `1`): another connection request is sent if there was no answer, e.g. on an unreliable network (Wi-Fi, VPN) or for hosts on the internet. Open and closed ports are not repeated. [#3653](https://github.com/BornToBeRoot/NETworkManager/pull/3653)
8989
- Added **RDAP...** to the context menu to query the registration data of the IP address or hostname of a host in the [**RDAP**](../application/rdap.md) tool. [#3642](https://github.com/BornToBeRoot/NETworkManager/pull/3642)

- The probes a host answered (**Ping**, **TCP**, **NetBIOS**) are shown in the tooltip of the status icon (e.g. `Up (detected by Ping, TCP)`) and as status icon (check / cross, like the action of a rule in the **Firewall**) in the header of the probe in the row details, e.g. to see why a host is up. The export contains them as `DetectedBy` (last column / element). [#PR](https://github.com/BornToBeRoot/NETworkManager/pull/PR)

- New **Ping hosts** setting (default on) to scan without ping, e.g. if ICMP is blocked or rate limited in the network: hosts are found by their ports or NetBIOS answer, and the scan is faster because an unreachable host doesn't wait for the ping attempts. At least one of ping, port scan, NetBIOS or SNMP must be enabled. [#PR](https://github.com/BornToBeRoot/NETworkManager/pull/PR)
9292
- New **Find hosts in the local subnet** setting (default on): hosts in a local subnet that don't answer the ping, a port or NetBIOS (e.g. a Windows client in a public network, a phone or an IoT device with a firewall that drops everything) are found by their ARP / NDP entry, which Windows creates when the probes resolve the MAC address of the host. No additional packets are sent, except to check an entry from earlier traffic again (also one that was already reachable before the probes, e.g. of a device that was switched off right before a rescan). Answers with the MAC address of the default gateway (proxy ARP) are ignored. The setting and **Resolve MAC address and vendor** are in the new **ARP / NDP** section of the settings, both with a help icon that explains the difference (finding hosts vs. showing the MAC address of found hosts). [#PR](https://github.com/BornToBeRoot/NETworkManager/pull/PR)
9393
- New **OS (guess)** column with the operating system guessed from the TTL of the ping reply (icon and text: `Linux / Unix`, `Windows` or `Network device`, the tooltip shows the number of hops), can be disabled with the new setting **Guess the operating system from the TTL** (default on). No additional packets are sent; IPv4 only. Also in the search, **Copy** and the export (`OSGuess`). [#PR](https://github.com/BornToBeRoot/NETworkManager/pull/PR)
