Running a Scan in Enterprise Server

This feature is designed for users who prefer to configure a scan in Fortify WebInspect rather than Fortify WebInspect Enterprise. You can modify the settings and run the scan in Fortify WebInspect, repeating the process until you achieve what you believe to be the optimal settings. You can then send the open scan's settings to Fortify WebInspect Enterprise, which creates a scan request and places it in the scan queue for the next available sensor.

To run a scan in WebInspect Enterprise:

1. Open a scan.

2. If you are not connected to an enterprise server, click the Enterprise Server menu and select Connect to WebInspect Enterprise.

3. Click the Scan menu and select Run in WebInspect Enterprise (or simply click the appropriate button on the toolbar).  

4. On the Run Scan in WebInspect Enterprise dialog box, enter a name for the scan.

5. Select an Application and a Version.

6. Click OK.

If you pass all permission checks, the scan is created and the priority assigned to the scan is the highest priority allowed by your role (up to 3, which is the default).
