Does 'nmap -sX <address-range>' fit the bill, e.g.
'nmap -sX 192.168.1.1-255'?
Only one the one network (192.168.1.0/25 in your example).
I want EVERYTHING on the network
Todd,
1) You asked for help and you are acting like a child demanding more
candy when you didn't get the flavor you wanted.
Hi Stephen,
I am trying to find a replacement for an important tool I use
on a frequent basis. I have been very clear about what
I am after.
If you do not understand what I am after, please just ask me instead
of insulting me.
2) nmap is a very complicated swiss army knife tool. There are
hundreds of things it can do but you need to take some time to figure
them out and get what you want. Expecting that you will get the answer
handed to you is being unreasonable.

I use nmap ALL THE TIME. If you know the "network" involved, it
is an awesome tool. But, if you are looking for stray or misconfigured
devices with a different network on the same interface, they will be
dark to nmap. In this scenario, the only tool I have found that
can do this is Autoscan.
3) what you are wanting is actually a multi step process. First you
need to see what mac addresses are on the network which usually only a
smart switch can tell you.
Autoscan does. But for how much longer ...
You can sort of get the data with a
mac-ping but it isn't guarenteed to work. After you get all the mac
addresses on the network then you can work out what ip addresses or
hardware those mac addresses think they are. Again easier with a smart
switch.
Hopefully, I do not have to go that route. This can be done from software,
as Autoscan demonstrates.
I may have to keep a copy of SL7.2 and FC23 around for years just to
run Autoscan. Oh well, what is a one more flash drive to add to the pile
I already have.
Tip: keep a dd copy of your flash drive. Windows machines tend to eat them.
"mac-ping". That sounds interesting.
I should put Autoscan on Wireshark and find out exactly what it does.
Thank you for helping me with this, except for the insults
