      • The first panel shows the number of open ports that were detected on each virtual network interface card (VNIC) in this Compute instance.

        A VNIC (virtual network interface card)  enables an instance to connect to a specific VCN (virtual cloud network) . To view details about a VNIC, hover your cursor over the chart.

      • The second panel shows the following details for each port number detected in this Compute instance.
        • Protocol (TCP or UDP)
        • Typical service that uses this port
        • VNIC
        • Public or private IP address that the port is listening on
    7. (Optional) Select one or more VNICs to show only those ports that were detected on the selected VNICs.

  • Use the oci vulnerability-scanning host scan result port get command and required parameters to retrieve a host port scan result identified by the host port scan ID:

    oci vulnerability-scanning host scan result port get --host-port-scan-result-id <port_scan_ocid>

    For example:

    oci vulnerability-scanning host scan result port get --host-port-scan-result-id ocid1.vssportscanresult.oc1..exampleuniqueID

    For a complete list of flags and variable options for CLI commands, see the Command Line Reference.

  • Run the GetHostPortScanResult operation to retrieve a host port scan result identified by the host port scan ID.
