Run vulnerability scans on clients requesting IP addresses from a DHCP server.
Vulnerability Scanner listens on port 67, which is the DHCP server’s listening port for DHCP requests. If it detects a DHCP request from a client, vulnerability scan runs on the client.
Note
Note
Vulnerability Scanner is unable to detect DHCP requests if you launched it on Windows Server 2008 or Windows 7.

Procedure

  1. Configure DHCP settings in the TMVS.ini file found under the following folder: <Server installation folder>\PCCSRV\Admin\Utility\TMVS.
