  5. Type the IP address range of the computers you want to check.
    1. Type an IPv4 address range.
      Note:

      Vulnerability Scanner can only query an IPv4 address range if it runs on a pure IPv4 or dual-stack host machine that has an available IPv4 address. Vulnerability Scanner only supports a class B IP address range, for example, 168.212.1.1 to 168.212.254.254.

    2. For an IPv6 address range, type the IPv6 prefix and length.
      Note:

      Vulnerability Scanner can only query an IPv6 address range if it runs on a pure IPv6 or dual-stack host machine that has an available IPv6 address.

  6. Specify the start time using the 24-hour clock format and then select how often the scan will run. Choose from daily, weekly, or monthly.
  7. Select Use current settings if you have configured and want to use manual vulnerability scan settings. For details about manual vulnerability scan settings, see Running a Manual Vulnerability Scan.

    If you did not specify manual vulnerability scan settings or if you want to use another set of settings, select Modify settings and then click Settings. The Settings screen appears. Configure scan settings and then click OK. For details, see Vulnerability Scan Settings.

  8. Click OK.

    The Scheduled Scan screen closes. The scheduled vulnerability scan you created appears under the Scheduled Scan section. If you enabled notifications, Vulnerability Scanner sends you the scheduled vulnerability scan results.

    Note:

    MAC address information does not display in the Results table if the computer runs Windows Server 2008.

  11. To stop running scheduled vulnerability scans, go to the Scheduled Scans section, select the scheduled scan, and click Delete.
