Use Other Burp Instance on Different Port as an Upstream Proxy to see Scanner requests

mark | Last updated: Sep 14, 2015 11:43PM UTC

If I want to see what requests are being sent by scanner, I usually run another Burp proxy instance and set my Upstream proxy to it. In that way when I look at the proxy history tab of that other burp proxy instance, I'd be able to see the requests being made by burp scanner. It would be nice if you don't have to do that, instead just add another proxy instance on a different port and use it as an upstream proxy.
