Schedule Scan
HackerGuardian vulnerability scans can be scheduled to run.
- At a specific date and time
- On a recurring basis at daily, weekly, monthly or user specified intervals
The summary screen displays a list of existing scans. Each row shows the target IP or IP range, the time that the scan is stated to run and whether the scan is recurring.
To schedule a new scan, click the ‘Add New Schedule’ button.
NOTE: existing scans cannot be edited. To
change the schedule of a scan assigned to a particular target, you should first
delete the existing schedule and click ‘Add New Schedule’. You will then be able
to assign a new timetable to a scan range.
Add New Schedule
In the Add New Schedule options, you could see the following options. These are:
- Specific Date: If you select a specific date in the schedule options and specify a date when the scan needs to takeplace, then the scan would be performed automatically on the particular date you have specified.
- Recurring: If
you select Recurring, you need to specify From and To dates and also when
the scan has to take place i.e. daily, weekly, monthly or intervals.
- Daily - Scan is performed daily
- Weekly - Weekly once scan is performed on the specified day
- Monthly - Monthly once the scan is performed on the specified date
- Intervals- Scan is performed between once in every specified days. If specified 2 then the scan is performed in alternative days.
The scan would be performed automatically in the specified time and also specified period of time.
NOTE: If
a IP has got a network, and you select that IP, then a network of
IP's would be displayed in the right hand column box as shown below. To
schedule the scan you need to select the IP from the right hand column box, which
would be displayed in Target IP Address.
Click Save after IP is selected to scan. The schedule would be saved in the Schedule Options and scan is performed on the appropriate date and time you specified.
