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

sudo enum4linux -a <ip-address> | tee <outputfile>.log

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:
