OpenVAS dones not run un windows - period nobody needs it to run on windows why? because virtualization exists - period Fair point, I could have phased that a bit more elegantly. That being said you could work a bit more on the tone you use to contribute to the list. Being a bit less aggressive towards others would improve the overall atmosphere. Show a little respect for the hard work Greenbone does here and keep the list informative and supportive of newcomers.

[Openvas-discuss] Open VAS vs Greenbone
Hi, What kind of scanning does OpenVAS support like host scanning, network scanning, application scanning because I am not finding any pages which describes the support for type of targets it scans. 2. There are no sizing requirements mentioned like memory requirements, Operating system, Hardware, Disk space, etc, Please suggest some best practice, I am looking for an enterprise deployment 3. Do we need to have separate systems on which the scanner, manager and GSA are installed ? I am good at Windows so can all the components be installed on windows platform 4. Can a single manager control multiple scanners.

Meant to send this to list... Sent from a computer On Feb 17, 2014, at 12:06 PM, Brandon Perry bperry.volat...@gmail.com wrote: 1. Openvas scans just like nexpose or nessus. You can scan a machine externally or provide creds to scan internally 2. Expect to need a box with 8gb ram for good performance. 3. You can run all on one machine with no real issue. However, i highly recommend not using windows. You will have much better community support using debian or centos. 4. Not sure about this, only ever used one.

Re: [Openvas-discuss] Open VAS vs Greenbone
1. depends a lot on what you configure it to do (in the scan profile), as far as possibilities go it will scan the hosts or networks you tell it to, then it will check for application or configuration issues (either remotely, or by logging into the server if you provide OpenVAS with credentials to do so). 2. Your hardware requirements will vary depending on the type of scan you are doing, how many targets, how many hosts and checks you allow to be done simultaneously, what reports are to be generated, My best advice would be to set up the scan you want to do, grab a subset of IPs (something like 30-50), run the scan, fiddle with the settings and see where your bottleneck is, then just scale up from there. For us it's the CPU most of the time. 3. I've never tried running a OpenVAS server on windows, might work if you manage to get it compiled. You can have all processes on the same server. 4. yes, works pretty good too. Scanners also don't require GSA to be installed or running. Hope that helped.
