For each selected plugin, the Preferences tab contains a list of fields that require entries.
In many cases, these fields will be pre-populated. In other cases, you must provide information required for the
operation of the plugin.
By way of example of how plugins use this information, consider a plugin that must access a particular service, in
order to determine some aspect of the client’s status; in such cases, login information might be among the preference
fields.

After saving the profile, plugin, and preference information for your new (or modified) plugin, you can go to the
Primary/Backup Servers tabs and select it from the Scan Profile drop-down list.
NMAP Audit Server
Policy Manager uses the NMAP Audit Server interface exclusively for network port scans. The health evaluation
always returns Healthy. The port scan gathers attributes that allow determination of Role(s) through post-audit rules.
The Audit tab labels the Server and defines configuration details.
