+
+The OpenVAS Manager is a layer between the OpenVAS Scanner and various client
+applications such as the web client GSA (Greenbone Security Assistant), the
+command line client omp (of openvas-cli) and the classic application GSD
+(Greenbone Security Desktop). Among other features, it adds server-side
+storage of scan results and it removes the need for a scan client to keep the
+connection open until the scan finishes. All communication between OpenVAS
+Manager and its clients is done via the XML-based OpenVAS Management Protocol
+(OMP).
