omp - OMP command line client for the Open Vulnerability
Assessment System (OpenVAS)
Together, OpenVAS Scanner (openvassd(8)) and OpenVAS Manager
(openvasmd(8)) provide the core functionality of the Open Vulnerability
Assessment System (OpenVAS), with OpenVAS Scanner handling the actual scan
process and OpenVAS Manager adding various management functionalities to
handle and organise scan results.
The omp binary is a command line client which uses the OMP
protocol to connect to the OpenVAS Manager and makes it easy to access the
full functionality provided by the OpenVAS Manager conveniently from the
command line and allows quick integration in a scripted environment.
