The Xen scan module captures servers running Citrix Hypervisor. It requires a connected gateway.

Captured data

The scan creates assets of these types: How the detail pages of the types are structured is described in Virtualization.

Setting up the job

The wizard follows the standard path Basics › Targets › Schedule › Summary—see Creating a Scan Job. The Targets step is what sets this module apart. Each row carries the columns IP/Hostname and Credentials. IP/Hostname takes one server running Citrix Hypervisor per row, as an address or hostname. The Credentials column must be filled, with an entry of the type User Account. An entry in Credentials for all targets applies to every row without an assignment of its own.

Prerequisites

The scan connects to the server over HTTPS.

Ports and protocols

Permissions

  • The account has administrator rights on the server running Citrix Hypervisor.

Network requirements

  • The firewall allows the port.
  • If a proxy sits in between, it may need exceptions.
After it is created, the job appears among the jobs; how you watch and adjust it is in Managing Jobs. The ports of all scan modules are in the Scan Reference.
