When performing a NESSUS scan of FW1, errors return:
Remote host was not identified as a known device or operating system and the execution of "uname -a" failed.
NESSUS returned the following error:
Enter old password:
This NESSUS scan works on three other FWs successfully
Plugin: ssh_get_info.nasl (#12634)
Plugin: no_local_checks_credentials.nasl (#110723)
The credentials have been validated within the scan policy... and works on three other FWs.

Hi @MichStrickland ,
I would check FW1 administrators and verify the Nessus scanner account is present and update the credentials to what is expected on the other firewalls.
