there's possibility nessus lost 1 or more port while scanning the
target host??if yes, why and how nessus handle it or how we know if
nessus lost them,example,from information by scan report maybe?thank
you..

Hi Hendra,

If a port is open and you tell Nessus to scan it, Nessus will not lose
this information. If the port is closed during a scan, becomes filtered
by a firewall or IPS, or maybe Nessus looses network connectivity with the
target you are scanning, it might incorrectly report a port closed that
is open.
