OpenVAS: 20.08.1~git / Community Edition
Nmap: 7.70
I run scans using nmap as the port scanner plugin. In the NVT Preferences I applied some configuration changes to the Nmap (NASL wrapper) (1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.14259):
- Minimum wait between probes: 20ms
- Timing policy: Normal
The nmap command in the log only uses -T3
(Timing Policy) but not the option --scan-delay
(Minimum wait between probes). Thus I run into rate limit restrictions of the firewall between the target network and my scanner.
Is it needed to somehow disable the timing policy to make the Nmap (NASL wrapper) recognise my additional timing settings?
