How can I scan a Windows Server 2016 machine that has an IP of X.X.X.0? I have setup IP scanning for this range and it seems to skip this specific IP.

I was able to scan it using Domain Scanning. However, it still didn't allow it to properly scan.

I have another computer with the identical configuration and identical firewall rules setup that is working, but this one has the error:

"Computer is online but firewalled."

Lansweeper treats IP addresses that end in either .0 or .255 as reserved addresses when scanning an ip range:

.0 as a network identifier
.255 as a broadcast address

You can use AD scanning to scan the server or Windows computer scanning as long as DNS is working fine.
