When you run NMAP, have you used the --reason command on the end to see
why it declared them all open?  The other thing you can do is to run a
sniffer (tcpdump, wireshark) when you are running your scan to see what
packets are coming back.

Hi Guys,

I am doing pen-testing for pool of IP's, During pen-test I observed  that some IP's  are giving all  ports open i.e. 
65535 in NMAP  result  &  Nessus is giving empty result.

What could be the reason for this?
