Hi All,
Does Nessus have any plugins for wireless to do a wireless scanning from a remote location ?

What kind of wireless scanning do you intend to do? If it's TCP/IP over wireless (but not wireless specific issues) you just need to configure your WLAN interface and run Nessus from it. If you intend to do wireless specific tests then I believe Nessus does not have any to send/receive traffic on wireless networks (when your WLAN is unconfigured and set in promiscuous mode)


There is a whitepaper from Tenable you might be interested it which allows detection of WAPs from the physical (ethernet or whatever medium you use) network http://www.tenablesecurity.com/wap-id-nessus.pdf, if that is not good enough for you might want to take a look at other (wireless-specific) tools.
