You should contact Cisco for support on Cisco products.
If Tenable plugins are in use on the CCA, you should
also review our FAQ regarding the acceptable use polices
and licenses for those plugins.
Having said that, if you are doing any serious scanning,
I suggest you install Nessus on a dedicated box and not
something that is enforcing network access control policy.
You should also read the document for configuring your
target systems to be used for credentialed access:

Subject: Nessus Network Scan SMB Login
Date: Fri, 26 May 2006 16:38:22 -0400
I am using Cisco Clean Access(CCA) to do network scan
which is actually using Nessus plugins to do the job. I
need to configure a SMB login account for Nessus network
scan. I configured the SMB login account through CCA web
interface but it looks like does not work. I captured the
packets at client during the scan. It looks like Nessus is
still trying the three default accounts for SMB login:
null, administrator and a random name. It did not use the
account I configured. What could be wrong? How do you
configure this SMB login account in Nessus? Also what is
the use of configure password for this login account? As
what I understand, SMB login does not need password.
Thanks.
