What is scan profile​

A scan profile defines how often and by which method the computer's hardware and/or software is regularly scanned. See the New scan profile form for a list of available fields. Depending on the scanning strategy you choose, you can use one or more scan profiles in your organization. Each computer object in Alvao is assigned only one scan profile.

The Default scan profile uses the automatically scan method, which covers the use of ALVAO Discovery Agent, ALVAO Endpoint Management Connectors, ALVAO Asset Management Monitoring Connectors, and ALVAO SNMP Network Discovery modules.
