Hi Tasos,

I am scanning a dummy ecommerce website and the url structure is like : www.site.com/category/product
i.e www.shoponline.com/shoes/running-shoes

As there are hundreds of products , it is not necessary to scan all pages.Is there any way i can configure arachni to scan only few of these type of urls and not all.

Thanks.

   I saw it but the example has parameter and value in the url which is not same in this case. So correct me if i am wrong but i will have to provide it as following:
   Url:www.shoponline.com/shoes/running-shoes
   --scope-auto-redundant=2

   So scanner will scan only 2 of this type of url. Right?

   No, that URL has no parameter, the auto-redundant option will not work on it.
   You should use the option I linked to.

   --scope-redundant-path-pattern='shoes/:3'

   So this will scan urls which contain 'shoes/' to crawl 3 times . Right?
