Yes, the first one. Manager gets the list of NVTs from the config (in the db) and sends the list to the Scanner using OTP. > Is it possible to control the scanner manual via OTP? Yes. This is what Manager does. But OTP may change at any time. The idea is to use OMP. -- Greenbone Networks GmbH Neuer Graben 17, 49074 Osnabrueck, Germany | AG Osnabrueck, HR B 202460 Executive Directors: Lukas Grunwald, Dr. Jan-Oliver Wagner _______________________________________________ Openvas-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wald.intevation.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openvas-discuss
