Vulnerability scanning tools cannot automatically adjust their scanning techniques based on the detected network topology. Penetration testers must understand the network topology and manually configure the scanning tools to ensure effective and thorough scanning. This involves selecting the appropriate scanning methods and settings that align with the network's architecture and design in order to minimize the risk of disruption and maximize the detection of potential vulnerabilities.
