This has been asked and not really answered before: how can OpenVAS
be configured to collect and report FQDNs of testing targets?


This is supported in current development trunk. Plugins have access to the reverse lookup value, it is shown in the reports in the web ui etc,.

I backported it to OpenVAS 8 branch, so it should be in the next maintenance release.

The "Reverse Lookup Only" and "Reverse Lookup Unify" options of the
targeting function appear to do nothing, and no reverse lookups
actually appear to occur regardless of the settings.

From the help documentation in GSA:

Reverse lookup only: Scan only hosts that reverse-lookup.

Reverse lookup unify: Deduplicate hosts based on reverse-lookup value.
ie. If some hosts in the targets string do reverse lookup to the same fqdn, scan only the first.


Best regards,

Hani.
