What outputs do -oN, -oX, -oG, and -oA produce, and how would you save all formats with a single base filename?

• A. -oN normal text; -oX XML; -oG grepable; -oA all formats; -oA <basename> saves all formats with that base name.
• B. -oN normal text; -oX XML; -oG grepable; -oA all formats
• C. -oN text; -oX binary; -oG json; -oA html
• D. -oN XML; -oX normal text; -oG XML; -oA normal

Answer: (D)

The outputs are about choosing how and where Nmap saves its results, and what formats you get. -oN writes a human-readable normal text file (it appends .nmap). -oX writes XML (append .xml). -oG writes a grepable format (append .gnmap). -oA saves all three formats in one go; if you provide a base name, it creates three files with that base: <basename>.nmap, <basename>.xml, and <basename>.gnmap. To save all formats with a single base filename, use -oA <basename>, for example -oA myscan. This lets you keep readable, XML, and grepable outputs together for easy access or downstream processing.
