To run enum you need to execute the command like that:

`<span class="monospace"><strong>sudo enum4linux -a <ip-address> | tee <outputfile>.log</strong></span>`

With this command you export the results into the defined output file. Makes it easier to analyze.  
It takes some time to see all results ca. 5 minutes.

To see all possible actions you do: **enum4linux -h**

During the execution you will see everything what gets scanned:
