We used previous FD/TD which has a nice import feature for massive numbers of subnets.
The TWInject/Twscan control tools seem fairly limited so we asked for an RFE to help improve the product, anyone have suggestions/etc.


Request for the ability to import a scan list file and complete onetime/scheduled scans based on the contents of the file.

The scan file should contain:
ScanName;IPRange;ScanLevel;ScanSchedule;ScanDuration

Sample:
Office1;172.11.11-17;Full;NONE;0
Office2;172.11.18-33,10.10.11-22,192.168.1.*;Full;Mondays@00:30;9


That said it would be REALLY great if you scan also enter all this stuff in ONE place rather than each downstream scanner.

IE:
The scan file should contain:
ScanName;SCANNER_NAME;IPRange;ScanLevel;ScanSchedule;ScanDuration
Sample:
Office1;SCANNER_APPLIANCE_1;172.11.11-17;Full;NONE;0
Office2;SCANNER_APPLIANCE_1;172.11.18-33,10.10.11-22,192.168.1.*;Full;Mondays@00:30;9

The SCANNER_NAME field could point the the name/host/ip of the other approved scanner devices.


My thought is to run the import/mgmt of this file from the consolidation appliance.


tw_scan_control sample:
tw_scan_control—label=testscan1—recur-daily—recurrence-duration=2—recurrence-start=3—scanLevel=“Full Discovery”—file ranges1.txt
