Scanning - to fast

Subject: Scanning - to fast
Date: Thu, 28 Feb 2008 10:05:31 +0100
Hello

Everything worked fine for me, but i wanted to scan all ports, so i changed it.
And it works but....to fast.

When i scan my whole network (16 networks, each class C) during network 
scanning hundreds of packets per second
are being sent. My pix firewalls have 98% cpu.
I scan maximum 10 hosts at the same time with maximum 10 tests.

The problem is that i do not want to make fewer test (fewer maximum hosts/fewer 
tests per host) because
after phase of network scanning everything works fine (other plugins works fine 
without too much network overload). Can i in any way make network scanning 
slower ?

Thanx
