I recommend the following:
of the results obtained with the first work session ("L2 Classification"),
you should separate the hosts depending on the operating system. Then, you
can continue with the different leves for each OS.
In other words: NT vulnerabilities with NT hosts and UNIX vulnerabilities
with UNIX hosts

I performed the first scan on my site and found that with my current
hardware, it took the IS 4:30 hours to scan 6088 hosts using the "L2
Classification" policy (22 vulnerabilities). I'm wondering how log it will
take to complete this scan using the "L4 NT Server" policy (284
vulnerabilities)?
Of the 6000 hosts, about 1/3 are of the NT variety. My question is: does
the scan engine try NT vulnerabilities against hosts that are not
identified as NT? I suspect that OS detection occurs every time the scan
engine runs. If the IS scan engine identifies a host as "UNIX", will it
still try to execute vulnerabilities designed for NT? Or will it "skip"
UNIX hosts?
I don't want a scan to run outside of business hours. I would like to keep
my scan duration to 6-8 hours. Any suggestions concerning estimating the
scan elapse time would be appreciated.
Thanks
