Updating Mobile Dr.Web Agents

General Information

If a user workstation has no access to Dr.Web Server for a long time, Dr.Web Agent on the station can get updates from Dr.Web GUS servers in the mobile mode. The mobile mode must be activated on the station and also permitted on the server.

You can set the mobile mode settings by changing the value of the EsAgent.MobileMode parameter:

This parameter can have the following values:

•on—use the mobile mode only (if permitted on the server) and get updates only from the Dr.Web GUS servers;

•off—do not use the mobile mode and get updates only from the centralized protection server;

•auto—use the mobile mode (if permitted on the server) and get updates either from the Dr.Web GUS servers or from the centralized protection server (depending upon which connection is available and which connection has a better quality).

Operation in the Mobile Mode with Default Settings

The auto value is set by default. The station will get updates from the Dr.Web GUS servers in the following cases:

•no updates have been received successfully from the centralized protection server during 24 hours;

•the connection to the centralized protection server cannot be established during 10 minutes.

In the mobile mode the Dr.Web Agent tries to connect to the centralized protection server once a minute. If the connection is kept for 10 minutes after a successful attempt, updates from the centralized protection server will be available again.
