Ports

Ports are available on the computer, network device, and mobile device entity types. Typically, ports are automatically imported into RiskVision by a vulnerability scanner, such as the Tenable Nessus Connector or the Qualys QualysGuard Connector. However, there may be times when you want to manually modify port data.

To add a port:

1. Open the Entity Details page, then click + to expand the System Details tab. 
2. Click Ports.
3. Click New to open the Port dialog.
4. Enter the following fields:
   • Name: The port name.
   • Protocol: The type of protocol, such as UDP and TCP.
   • Protocol Number: The port number.

5. Click OK.

5. Click Search to view results in the Known Ports box.
