Copy a scan
The Scan Management view will be deprecated in a future release. The Scans view in Policy Configuration will enable you to manage security scans. Go to Policy > Policy Configuration > Scans to add, modify, copy, and delete security scans. See Scans for more information.
This option allows you to access the Scans on appliances running FortiNAC that are managed by FortiNAC Control Manager and copy them from one server to another.
When a Scan is copied there are several issues that must be noted. If a scan with the same name exists on a receiving server, it is replaced with the scan being copied.
If the original scan is modified at a later time, those changes are not sent to the copied scans on other appliances. The scan must be copied again or all versions of the scan must be modified individually.
Certain pieces of data must be kept in mind when copying Scans. Scans require a mechanism to assign them. After copying the scan to the receiving appliance you must configure an Endpoint Compliance Profile and an Endpoint Compliance Configuration that include the scan.
