About Appliance Reassociation

With the Appliance Reassociation feature, you can retain a deployed RN150 Virtual Appliance (RN150 VA) and its data when initiating a new assessment. When upgrading from a proof-of-concept to a full subscription, this feature can be utilized to seamlessly begin the full assessment.

Each assessment in the RISC Network platform has an associated RN150 VA. There is a one-to-one association of assessment to RN150 VA deployment. The link between the RN150 VA and the assessment is made after the assessment code is entered into the RN150 VA. With the Appliance Reassociation feature, you can sever the tie between an existing RN150 VA and an existing running assessment, and re-associate that RN150 VA to a new assessment.
