Once you enable a Vulnerability Assessment action rule for BSSs, a vulnerability assessment will only start when AirDefensedetects a new alarm that was defined in the action rule. When the assessment is complete (after about 5 minutes), no other assessments will run until 10 minutes passes after the last vulnerability assessment was started. At that point, only another new alarm will trigger the Vulnerability Assessment action rule. No other assessments will run until a new alarm is detected. Once a new alarm is detected, the cycle repeats itself.
