LinuxQuestions.org - nmap scan A B C class network , all

255.255.255.255/0 would scan ALL IPv4 addresses (Included LAN, reserved, special, etc...), although, I don't recommend you do it, your ISP will get abuse complaints and they'll forward that onto you.

Quick example (Ctrl+c'd it before it got to any real hosts):-
