How to manage Nessus settings

We have already learned a great deal about Nessus settings in Chapter 2, Understanding Network Scanning Tools. For a quick recap, in the Nessus settings, we can look at various options available in Nessus. The Nessus settings consist of About, Advanced, Proxy Server, SMTP Server, Custom CA, and Password Mgmt. These menus have further subsettings, which have specific purposes. We will see what can be configured using each menu in the How to do it... section.
