Settings

You can configure Tenable Agent settings in two ways: remotely from your agent manager (Tenable Vulnerability Management or Tenable Nessus Manager) or locally on the agent's command line interface.

Settings Configured on the Manager

You can configure most agent settings, such as freeze windows, logging, and proxy settings, from the manager interface.

• Configure general settings for linked Tenable Agents.

  • Tenable Vulnerability Management — Agent Settings

  • Tenable Nessus Manager — Modify Agent Settings

• Create, modify, and delete freeze windows for Tenable Agents.

  • Tenable Vulnerability Management — Freeze Windows

  • Tenable Nessus Manager — Freeze Windows

• (Tenable Nessus Manager-only) Modify agent log settings.

  • Tenable Nessus Manager — Manage Logs

Settings Configured on the Agent

You can configure advanced settings and proxy settings directly on the agent using the command line interface.
