View Scan Logs

The 'Scanning Details' interface lets you view logs of currently running and recent scans.

The logs provide information on the IP address scanned as per the domain, workgroup or the IP address range chosen for scanning, endpoints discovered at the IP addresses, a summary of critical issues identified from the endpoints and the issue score of the endpoints.

The logs can also be saved as an XML file for later analysis.

Note: The 'Scanning Details' interface will be available only if logging is enabled for the Network Assessment Tool application. See Configure Network Assessment Tool for more details.

To view the scan logs, click 'Scanning Details' from the menu bar.

Sort and Filter Options:

Clicking on any column header sorts the events based on the alphabetical order of entries in that column

The 'Filter' drop-down at the top left allows you to filter the scanning details based on discovery of assets at the IP addresses scanned. The available options are:

All IPs – Displays the scanning details from all IP addresses scanned

IPs with Asset - Displays the scanning details only from those IP addresses at which network assets were discovered

IPs without Asset - Displays the scanning details only from those IP addresses at which no network assets were discovered

Save Logs:

You can generate an XML file from the currently displayed logs and save it for analysis at a later time.
