Are you trying to do a credentialed scan or simply an external scan?  Do
these appliances have an OS and firewall?

Subject: [Openvas-discuss] OpenVAS 7 on VM is working on
HTTP/HTTPS/Telnet/SSH ports?

 

Hello experts,

 

Please help. I am a beginner of OpenVAS.   I like OpenVAS design and its
architecture very much, but I am stuck by my trial experience at this point.


 

Recently I installed  OpenVAS 7 on a CentOS 6.6 VM and scanned some
appliance products of my company in same subnet that have
HTTP/HTTPS/SSH/Telnet/Ping/SNMP services open on the mgmt. IP.  Although
scan progress looked normal till done status, somehow scan results are
always empty with various targets/port lists, and scan config.  The OS is
not even detected.   Using task wizard didn't help.  Meanwhile I used other
3rd party scan tools (e,g Qualys) and found some vulnerabilities detected
and reported, but I don't want to give up OpenVAS.

 

I ran openvas-check-setup  -v7 without any errors before I used OpenVAS.  I
wonder if I missed any configurations that are critical to the scan engines.
Can someone hint me where to start diagnose to ensure the scan is properly
configured to function?

 

Thanks in advance.

Artie
