hello,I wonder if there is a chance to stop the crawler and after start the vulnerability check? I use arachni web almost every day and sometimes I have to test a large site so I have very much to wait until the crawler ends ..

Cheers!

   So you're asking for a way to perform one crawl but be able to perform multiple audits without re-crawling? Yep, there's a way for that.

   Simply pass the .afr file that was created after the first crawl to the rescan plugin.

    [*] rescan:
   --------------------
   Name:       ReScan
   Description:    It uses the AFR report of a previous scan to
                   extract the sitemap in order to avoid a redundant crawl.
   
   Options:    
    [~]    afr - Path to the AFR report.
    [~]    Type:        path
    [~]    Default:     
    [~]    Required?:   true

   PS. Sorry it took me a while to reply, your comment triggered a spam rule somehow and I just noticed it.

   Forgot to mention, you can't actually do that via the WebUI, you'll need to use the CLI.
