How update my open vas scanner, I have 21.4.3, I need 21.4.4

[@daye1997]

Is there a way to scan all the network devices by subnet IP addresses instead of manually adding each of them. What credentials for linux server is needed to add the target? Sudo user account? Thank you!

[@ITLumberjack]

You should be able to do that. Take a look at section 10.2.1 of the Greenbone documentation.
As for Linux, I am not sure what Linux credential permissions would need to be. I would think that sudo would be necessary but I am not 100% sure.

[@daye1997]

Thank you. I was able to install GVM on Kali linux .

[@lochbaummusic109]

If you go into task, new task, it will prompt you to put in a target where you can hit new and then just put in the ip range for the subnet you want to scan. for instance if you punch in 192.168.0.1/24 in the target host field, that would scan every IP in the range of 192.168.0.1-192.168.0.254.

I'm struggling with running the scans on my OpenVas on severity part it gives back an error

[@ITLumberjack]

What is the error?

[@ishmaelchigova3112]

@@ITLumberjack it gives back an error on severity, when i check the error message it says "VTs list is empty"

[@ITLumberjack]

I would try allowing ICMP traffic (ping) to the device being scanned.
Another option would be to install the agent.

[@kalyankalapala24]

I am getting severity N/A error while scanning. Please help me to resolve the issue
