Scan Results Shows Non-Existent Hosts 05 January 2013, 05:10

I just ran a scan of an IP range, and I get a lot of IPs in the results list that I know don't exist. When I ping them manually, I get a reply from a different host saying "destination host unreachable". How do I prevent these from showing up as a positive result?

Thanks!

Scott

Set Options - General - Ping Method to ICMP (only) rather than ICMP + ARP.
