Support for testing large networks and natural naming conventions
Using Metasploit is easy. However, here, ease of use refers to natural naming conventions of the commands. Metasploit offers excellent comfort while conducting a massive network penetration test. Consider a scenario where we need to test a network with 200 systems. Instead of checking each system one after the other, Metasploit offers to examine the entire range automatically. Using parameters such as subnet and Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) values, Metasploit tests all the systems to exploit the vulnerability, whereas using manual techniques, we might need to launch the exploits manually onto 200 systems. Therefore, Metasploit saves a significant amount of time and energy.
