Of course that you have to manually configure what scanner to use for each Task. And in terms of performance i don’t know since i never used it distributed but it makes sense that it will increase the performance for each scan you add. > No dia 18/08/2016, às 21:36, Fábio Fernandes <[email protected]> > escreveu: > > I have never had the need or tested an distributed OpenVAS architecture but i > think that it is possible.
