Hi,
Re. 1. How to check the what vulnerability scanner (port scanner) that is deployed ?
You will have to ask your IT Management and/or Operations team if such a solution is in use within your organization. From the side of the VSE there is no knowledge what type of client and/or solution is sending something to a listening port
Re. 2. Is there any way to stop sending the unexpected payloads to the virtual service port ?
There is not really a way to stop the VSE to transfer the incoming request to the virtual service. Since your VS has a detailed basepath it appears that the VSE was able to extract the HTTP command from the incoming request and pass the request to the virtual service.
Do you have certainty that the incoming requests are NOT coming from your SUT? It could be that your SUT has an issue and sometimes sends out garbage?
Does the VSE monitor shows an error count in the portal? Is the VS still running but unresponsive or did it stop? In the case it stops due to errors then you can adapt the Listen step in the VSM to not fail when there is an "If Environment Error" assertion fired but instead let the assertion loop back to the Listen step itself again to process the next request.
Cheers,
Danny
