I would suspect that if you modified the configuration file you are using (e.g.  .nessusrc) from the default to enumerate the ports you wish to scan you could accomplish it...

begin(SERVER_PREFS)
.....
 port_range = default

Nessus command line client and excluding ports





I am using the nessus command line client on a server (no graphical
interface) and would like to know if there is a way to exclude ports
from being scanned.

It seems that not as much attention has gone into the command line
version, I assume everybody uses the graphical client? The command line
use of the client doesn't seem to be a full of options - I'm sure they
are there even in the cli version, just not obviously documented and I
didn't find much in the documentation section on the website.

Could somebody please point me in the right direction regarding using
the client from the command line?
