Removing IPs

When can I remove IPs?

Only when these conditions are true: 1) no scan is currently running on the IP within your account, 2) the IP is not included in the target of any scheduled scans within your account, and 3) the IP is not included in a scan currently being imported from the VM module to your account.

Are you a Trial user? You must submit a request for the removal of IPs. See Request Removal of IPs.

Are you using Express PCI? It is not possible to remove IPs from your account. Please contact your account manager.

What are the steps?

Go to Account > IP Assets and click Remove IPs. Enter the IP addresses and/or IP address ranges separated by commas, then click Next. If there are no conflicts with running or scheduled scans, a message appears notifying you that it is safe to remove the IPs. Click Remove to remove the IPs and exit the workflow.

What happens next?

Removed IPs will be removed from your account and from the scope of current network status.

QIDs that were previously detected on removed IPs are deleted from the Current Vulnerabilities list.

Any history information in previous scans and submitted reports will remain unaffected.

Removed IPs cannot be included in future reports. To include the removed IPs at a later time, you will need to re-add and then re-scan the IPs.
