After a new stations account is created in the Control Center, the personal installation package for Dr.Web Agent installation is generated. Installation package contains the Anti-virus installer and the set of parameters for connecting to the Server and for authorization of the station at the Server (description of installation package and the process of Agent installation via this package is given in the Installation Manual, in the Local Installation of Dr.Web Agent section).

1.Attachments are forbidden in the settings (the Send the link only flag is set, see below): only links for downloading the packages are sent in the email.

a)Windows OS: the letter attachment contains Dr.Web Agent for Windows installation package.
b)Linux OS, macOS, Android OS: the letter attachment contains Dr.Web Agent installation package for the corresponding operating system and the configuration file with the settings for connecting to Dr.Web Server.
3.Operating system of the station is unknown—the new station account, Agent in not yet installed (attachments are allowed):
a)If the Server does not contain the packages for stations under Linux OS, macOS, Android OS (in particular, Dr.Web enterprise products are not downloaded on the Server): the letter attachment contains Dr.Web Agent for Windows installation package and the configuration file with the settings for connecting to Dr.Web Server for stations under Linux OS, macOS, Android OS.
b)If the Server contains at least one package except packages for stations under Windows OS: the letter attachment contains Dr.Web Agent for Windows installation package, the configuration file with the settings for connecting to Dr.Web Server for stations under Linux OS, macOS, Android OS and the link to download installation packages for stations under Linux OS, macOS, Android OS.
