The scan modules
The catalog shows 27 modules. Basics, Schedule and Summary are the same for all; only the middle part differs. Which modules there are and which steps and target columns they carry is in Scan Modules—Overview. The step with the targets is called Targets with every module that carries a target list. One row is one scan target; above it stands the Credentials for All Targets field with an optional override per row. The Credentials column carries the same name with every module, even where no account stands in it: with SNMP v1 and v2 a community is held in it. With five modules the column may stay empty, because the scan can run under the gateway’s service account: Windows DNS, Windows DHCP, DFS, Microsoft SQL Server and Hyper-V.What may go into the target column
Also rejected are a range whose start address lies after its end address and
addresses in reserved blocks:
0.0.0.0/8, 192.0.0.0/24, 192.88.99.0/24,
multicast (224.0.0.0/4) and 240.0.0.0/4 including 255.255.255.255. For a
CIDR network the address before the slash counts, for a range both ends;
hostnames are exempt. The same check applies to the CSV import.
Ports and protocols
The gateway connects outbound to Docusnap365 over HTTPS; only port 443 is needed to the outside. There are no inbound connections from the internet. The table lists, per scan module, the connections the gateway establishes during the scan. The pages of the individual scan modules add permissions, network requirements and common issues.
With Linux, macOS and Oracle Database, the port is set per target in the
Port column, preset with 22 and 1521 respectively. With Oracle Database, the
listener configuration determines which port applies. The IP-Hosts port scan
checks different ports depending on the target, in the extreme case all of them.
Credential types
SNMPv3 algorithms: authentication None, MD5, SHA-1 · encryption None,
AES, AES-128, AES-192, AES-256, DES, TDES. If the authentication
stands at None, the encryption jumps to None with it.
Storage mode per entry: Reusable (permanently in the vault) or One-Time (for
this job only, not saved).
The list under Scan › Credentials carries five columns: Name, Type,
Username, Expiration Date and Storage Location (vault or gateway).
Windows components
Windows (AD) and Windows (IP) collect 22 components; 20 are preselected. The complete table is on the module page Windows.Module settings
In the middle part of the wizard behind the Customize button; if a module has only one setting, it stands directly in the step:
All other modules do not show the button.
Bounds of the number fields
A value outside these bounds is pulled to the bound without a message when you leave the field.Schedule
Frequency section:
The Schedule section below carries Time, Start and End. Dates in the past
are locked in all three date fields. Time accepts quarter hours only; a stored
value outside the grid is rounded down when the step is opened.
The closing button of the wizard is called Run Now with immediate execution,
otherwise Schedule Job.
Results in the execution history
The Last Result column in the three job lists carries the same values.
