Isn’t this Banner grabbing? Because this output shows versions but not port.

I think it’s Port Scanning, because it tells the IP and the Server and the Protocol that is open

Lets look at the information. If it was a port scan, you would have a few IP addresses and a number of open ports. Now, OpenSSL-Server_5.7 could be the name of a system but there are two with different IP addresses–not a name.
So we have an IP address, an Operating system, and version number. This is banner grabbing not port scanning.
