Hi everyone, This may be a daft question, and I am sure it is as no one else has asked, but would Nessus work on Firewalla gold? Something I think is missing (and might post as a feature based on the response I get from this), is checking for vulnerabilities on devices like OS etc not being up to date. The use case for me, is if someone joins my network, having their device fully scanned and if there are any vulnerabilities then they get moved to quarantine. And if any existing devices are found to have vulnerabilities on the network they automatically get moved to quarantine until the issues are resolved. Much like what could be done with packet fence for arguments sakes.

  Yes but this is just passwords. Which is a massive step forward, but I was also curious about the broader vulnerability landscape like devices that OS etc are not up to date or other exploitable states devices may be in at an app level

  I bought this since it said it did vuln scans but from reading it just guesses passwords. Soma Nessus scan would be loved
