(Run) next to the report template you just created.Information about whether hosts passed or failed authentication appears in your scan results and scan reports.
The Report Summary section of your scan results displays the number of successful and failed authentication attempts for each enabled authentication type. This information does not appear if no authentication types were enabled in the option profile. (Note the Report Summary section does not display information about Oracle Listener authentication status.)
A sample summary message is shown below:
Windows authentication failed for 1 host, Unix/Cisco IOS authentication was successful for 2 hosts, SNMP authentication was successful for 3 hosts
The Appendix section of your scan results displays a list of the hosts for which authentication was successful and hosts for which authentication failed for all authentication types. The Option Profile section of the Appendix lists the scan options used, including which authentication types were enabled for the scan.
It’s recommended that you run a scan report which shows detailed results for the authentication status QIDs provided by the service.
