As we all know, a user can set the port range in the
Nessus Setup GUI which would like nessus to do the
scanning job on the particular port..!

eg. in Nessus Setup GUI, Scan Options > Port Range
(23,25)

i have set the port range as 23,25..!then i Start the
scan..!

The port range controls the port range of the port scanner. If a plugin needs to connect to an unscanned port, then it will try to do so.


If you do not want this behavior to occur, check the option "consider unscanned ports as closed".
