Re: no information in the html report exported

[Girish <girishramgopal@gmail.com>]

But even I didnt see any value in the field "hosts which were alive and responding during test".

When I tried to scan a regular workstation and I got all values correctly.

If I am not wrong, atleast I should see the number of hosts scanned when I am scanning a security device right?

Attached is the report generated when scanning a security device.

Please let me know if this is expected?

 

Thanks,

Girish

If you are scanning a security device/firewall, I don't think you will see much of anything unless there is a specific vulnerability plugin relating to that product/device you are scanning and your device is susceptible to it. Do you get different results if you scan a regular workstation (without a firewall)?

Hello All,

 

I have connected my Nessus machine to a security gateway.

I have started the scan and I was able to see the packets reaching the security router.

But after the scan is over, I have exported the report in a html format.

I was able to see all the fields but all the values were zero which includes even the hosts field.

 

Kindly let me know if I have to confgure anything in the Nessus to see some information(success/failure) in the exported report?

Please let me know as soon as possible.

 

Thanks,

Girish
