What happens when a Scanner Appliance scans itself?

Our Scanner Appliance is hardened and does not expose any extra ports to the network. Internally, on a Scanner Appliance, several ports are available but not exposed to the network and are blocked by the internal network rules. If a network scan is performed on a Scanner Appliance, several ports will be highlighted as open.

To retrieve accurate results on what ports and services are exposed from a Scanner Appliance, you need to scan it from another endpoint; for example, Scanner Appliance A is scanning Scanner Appliance B.
