7       System (OpenVAS)

SYNOPSIS

10       omp OPTIONS
11

DESCRIPTION

13       Together, OpenVAS Scanner (openvassd(8))  and  OpenVAS  Manager  (open‐
14       vasmd(8))  provide  the  core  functionality  of the Open Vulnerability
15       Assessment System (OpenVAS), with OpenVAS Scanner handling  the  actual
16       scan process and OpenVAS Manager adding various management functionali‐
17       ties to handle and organise scan results.
18
19       The omp binary is a command line client which uses the OMP protocol  to
20       connect  to  the  OpenVAS  Manager and makes it easy to access the full
21       functionality provided by the OpenVAS  Manager  conveniently  from  the
22       command line and allows quick integration in a scripted environment.
