Required User Role: User with administrator privileges

To see and copy the full command for your specific operating system, see the Command Quick Reference.

Usage

To register a Nessus scanner with Tenable Security Center, use the following command:

# nessuscli fetch --security-center

Caution: Do not use this command if you do not want to switch your Nessus instance to Tenable.sc. This command irreversibly changes the Nessus scanner or Manager to a Tenable.sc-managed scanner, resulting in a number of user interface changes (for example, the site logo will change, and you'll no longer have access to the Sensors page).
