Installing Dr.Web Agent via the Personal Installation Package

To install Dr.Web Agent on protected stations via the personal installation package

2.Send to a user the link on Dr.Web Agent personal installation package for corresponding operating system of a computer or mobile device, if a user performs Dr.Web Agent software installation directly.

For easy delivering of installation and configuration files, you can use the Mailing of installation files function (detailed information is given in the Administrator Manual, p. Mailing of Installation Files) to email messages with corresponding files.

Dr.Web Agent should be installed by a user with the administrator rights to the computer.

If anti-virus software has already been installed on a workstation, then before starting installation the installer will attempt to remove it. If the attempt fails, the user will have to uninstall the anti-virus software from his computer by himself.

After installation of Dr.Web Agent on stations under other supported systems via the personal installation package, additional configuring is not required. Parameters of connection to Dr.Web Server and authorization parameters are included into a personal installation package directly. After the Agent installation is complete, the station automatically connects to Dr.Web Server.

To create a station account or several station accounts, use Dr.Web Security Control Center.

When creating a station account, please note the name of Dr.Web Server specified in the following sections of the Control Center:

1.Administrating → Web server configuration → the Dr.Web Server address field. This parameter value is used when generating the link on the Agent installation package.

If the parameter value is not specified, when the DNS name (if available) or IP address of a computer on which the Control Center is opened, is used as a Dr.Web Server name to generate the link on Agent installer download.

2.Administrating → Dr.Web Server configuration → the Network tab → the Download tab → the Dr.Web Server address field. This parameter value is specified in the Agent installation packages and defines to which Dr.Web Server the Agent connects during installation.

If the parameter value is not specified, when creating an installation package of the Agent, the name of the Dr.Web Server to which the Control Center connected is used. In this case, the Control Center must be connected to Dr.Web Server using the IP-address of the domain for which you create an account (Dr.Web Server address must not be specified as a loopback—127.0.0.1).

2.In the toolbar, click

Add a network object →

Create station option. A pane for the new station account creation will be opened in the right part of the Control Center window.

4.In the Identifier field, unique identifier of created station will be generated automatically. You can edit it, if necessary.

5.In the Name field, specify the station name that will be displayed in the anti-virus network hierarchical list. Further, after the station is connected with Dr.Web Server, this name can be automatically changed to the station name which is specified locally.

6.In the Password and Confirm Password fields you can specify a password for accessing Dr.Web Server by a station. If the password is not specified, it will be generated automatically.

7.In the Description field, specify additional information about the customer. This parameter is optional.

8.In the Groups section, specify groups in which the created station will be included.

•In the Membership list, you can configure the list of user groups into which the station will be included.
By default, station is included into the Everyone group. If custom groups are available, you can include creating station into those groups with no limitations on the number of groups into which the station is included. To do this, set the flags next to the user group names in the Membership list.

To set a primary group for the creating station, click the icon of the corresponding group from the Membership list. The 1 will appear on the group icon.

•In the Policies list, you can set the policy from which the creating station settings will be used.
By default, the policy is not set. To specify the policy, set the flag next to the necessary policy. Station settings will be inherited from the settings of the current version of this policy. No more than one policy can be assigned to a station.

9.In the Proxy Server section, you can configure the settings of Dr.Web Proxy Server connected with this station.
If you want to install the Proxy Server on the creating station, set the Create linked Proxy Server flag and specify the parameters of the Proxy Server. The parameters are the same as when creating a Proxy Server.

When creating the station account, the Proxy account will be created in the Control Center. After the settings transmitted to the station, the Proxy Server will be installed on this station in the background mode. The Agent will be connecting to Dr.Web Server through the installed Proxy Server only. The Proxy Server usage will be transparent to a user.

10.Specify parameters of the Security section, if necessary. Parameters of this section are described in the Administrator Manual, in the p. Security.

12.Click Save in the upper right corner. The opened pane contains information about successful creation of a station, its ID and the following links:

•The Installation file item contains the link for downloading Agent installer for this station.

•In the Configuration file item—the link for downloading the file with settings of connection to Dr.Web Server for stations under Android, macOS and Linux operating systems.

After a new station has been created, before the operating system of a station is set, in the section of distribution kit downloading, the links are presented separately for all OS that are supported by Dr.Web Enterprise Security Suite.

Link for the Agent installation package downloading is also available:

•in station properties after its creation,

•in the Selected objects section for the station selected in hierarchical list.

To have installation packages for operating systems other than Windows OS, you must additionally download Dr.Web enterprise products from GUS servers to the repository after the Dr.Web Server installation.

Detailed information on how to handle the Dr.Web Server repository you can find in the Administrator Manual, the Administration of Dr.Web Server Repository section.

•The Password item contains the password to access this station to Dr.Web Server. To view the password, click

•The Proxy Server password item contains the password to access the Proxy Server to Dr.Web Server, if the station is created with the connected Proxy Server (see step 9).

13.Installation of Dr.Web Anti-virus on workstations is described in the User Manual for corresponding OS.

3.Parameters of connection to Dr.Web Server, such as IP address and authorization parameters at Dr.Web Server, are specified automatically from the install.cfg configuration file that resides in the personal installation package.

b)Drag the configuration file to the opened window or click the dotted area to select the file.

If the file is mounted, fields for entering the connection settings will be specified automatically.
