For purposes of a disconnected network (highly secured), Can I treat a consolidator server as a source of data for a different Consolidator?

No, sorry. An appliance cannot be both at the same time.

What are you trying to achieve Joe? Do you want to have a consolidated view within a secure area and a wider consolidated view over several secure areas?

Sorry to bring back an old thread but I would like to know how could I consolidate information from two or more consolidators (lets suppose I have one on each area of the WAN).

As Eric said, you can’t. You can only consolidate data from scanners and an appliance cannot be both.

Why do you need to consolidate within the WAN - why not just feed all the scanners to one consolidator?

Because I have a huger number of hosts to scan worldwide and it would help performance if I had each consolidator in each region.
