Performing a Network Discovery scan with Nessus

Subject: Performing a Network Discovery scan with Nessus
Date: Thu, 16 Jun 2005 07:03:46 -0700
        Are there any references or articles on the best way to perform
a network discovery with Nessus?  By comparison, if I wanted to conduct
a VA scan just for one particular OS I would have a better idea of the
plugins to use.  I'm after a (relatively) quick & non-intrusive scan of
local and remote subnets (some slow links).  I've picked up the Syngress
"Nessus Network Auditing " book, which is good, but I'm after
configuring Nessus just for discovering devices that can be VA scanned
by their respective check/plugins.
TIA
Ray
