I want to scan entire subnet

[Goku81]

I want to do work with my subnet here and I want to know how to do this, I am new to Perl and got the hang of FTP stuff in perl now but i want to do scans on whole subnet and need a way to basically do this algorithm

a = 255, b = 255, c = 255, d = 1;

while(d != 255)
do
connect->(a.b.c.d); // this being an IP address
d++;
done

How do I got about doing this???

I'm not sure about the connect part, but the loop would look something like this:

for ( $i = 1; $i < 255; $i++ ) {
   connect->(&quot;255.255.255.&quot;.$i);
}

or even:

foreach $i (1..255) {
   connect->("255.255.255.".$i);
}
