Good morning-
Please provide a description of the issue: Certain agencies are not able to complete a Tenable Scan using either Agents or Nessus Scanners

Please provide an estimate of how many users are impacted: Majority of state agencies
Service affected: Tenable Security Center, Nessus Scanners, Nessus Agents
Any other information or device details:
UPDATE #1: Tenable has provided a possible solution and we will be testing it out today and will provide results to Tenable, if not successful, we will be in contact with Tenable to have another troubleshooting session.

UPDATE #2: We tried Tenable solution and were unsuccessful. They have requested a diagnostic file which we have sent. We are awaiting further information from Tenable.

UPDATE #3: We have narrowed down to scanners not listening on TCP 8834 via IPv4 as a possible issue. Tenable provide another possible fix action, which we tried and were unsuccessful. Reaching out to Tenable for further troubleshooting.
