So Nmap offers a simpler approach, with six timing templates. You can specify them with the option and their number (0–5) or their name. The template names are - (),paranoid () timing template - (),sneaky () timing template - (),polite () timing template - (),normal () timing template - (),aggressive () timing template -and  ().insane () timing template + (), + (), + (), + (), + (), +and  (). The first two are for IDS evasion. Polite mode slows down the scan to use less bandwidth and target machine resources. Normal mode is the default and so does nothing. Aggressive mode speeds scans up by making the assumption that you are on a reasonably fast and reliable -network. Finally insane mode assumes that you are on an +network. Finally +insane modeinsane () timing template +assumes that you are on an extraordinarily fast network or are willing to sacrifice some accuracy for speed.
