I disagree with the disagreement... if it's a FAQ, it should be in the FAQ. However, the FAQ also needs to come with a disclaimer that there are a LOT of variables, and the variables will change over time.
I think it is useful to have a benchmark even if things are going to change. Cheers, -rjf -----Original Message----- From: Matthew X.

I disagree, because it will change every time a new plug-in comes out or what your scan/plug-in settings are. If you want to know what impact Nessus will have, run a typical scan and use TCPDUMP (or Ethereal or Sniffer Pro or whatever) to measure bandwidth usage.
