Clients running Windows OS support the SRV client network protocol (its format is described in the Appendices, section Appendix D. The Specification of Network Addresses).
Access to Dr.Web Server via the SRV records is implemented as follows:
1.During the Dr.Web Server installation, it is registered in the Active Directory domain, the installer registers a corresponding SRV record on the DNS server.
|
SRV record is registered on the DNS server according to the RFC2782 (see https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc2782). |
2.When requesting a connection to Dr.Web Server, a user specifies access via the srv protocol.
For example, to launch the Dr.Web Agent installer:
•with explicit specification of the myservice service name:
drwinst /server "srv/myservice"
•without specifying the service name. In this case, the SRV records are searched for the default name—drwcs:
drwinst /server "srv/"
3.Transparently for the user, the client uses the SRV protocol's features to access Dr.Web Server.

If Dr.Web Server is not specified directly, the default name of the service is drwcs. |
