User-Defined Scan Templates

When you set up a scan, you can save the configuration as a template for use in future scans.

About this task

You can save the template before running the scan; or you can save a finished scan as a template for future scans. Also, if you have a scan with interesting results, and you want to rerun the same scan throughout the development and QA process, you can save the scan as a scan template.

Procedure

Do one of the following:
- Configure a scan using the Scan Configuration Wizard.
- Configure a scan using the Scan Configuration dialog box.
- Load a saved scan whose configuration you want to save as a template.
On the File menu, click Save As.
Choose the .scant file type in the Save As dialog box.
Type in an easily recognizable name for the template.
Click Save.
