Every computer with installed antivirus package according to its functions in the antivirus network is a separate workstation of the antivirus network. Workstations are protected by the Dr.Web antivirus packages designed for the corresponding operating systems.
|
Protected computer with an installed antivirus package in the is called a workstation of the antivirus network. Please note: according to its LAN functions, such a computer with an installed antivirus package can be both a workstation or a mobile device and a LAN server according to its functions. |
Antivirus packages are installed on protected stations and get connected to Dr.Web Server. Each station is included in one or several groups registered on this Dr.Web Server. Data between stations and Dr.Web Server is transferred via a TCP/IP protocol version 4 or 6 used in a local network.
Installation
Administrators or users install antivirus packages for macOS directly on the station. You can find detailed description of the antivirus packages installation on workstations in the Dr.Web Enterprise Security Suite Installation Manual.
Management
When connection with Dr.Web Server is established, the administrator is able to use the following functions implemented by the antivirus package on a station:
•Centralized configuration of Dr.Web on workstations via the Control Center.
At this, administrator can either restrict or grant user's permissions to change settings on stations.
•Configure the schedule for the antivirus scans and other tasks to execute on a station.
•Get scan statistics and other information on antivirus components operation and on stations state.
•Start and stop antivirus scans and etc.
Update
Dr.Web Server downloads updates and distributes them to connected stations. It allows to automatically implement, maintain, and adjust protection regardless of workstation users’ computer skills.
If a station is temporarily disconnected from the antivirus network, the station will use a local settings copy. Antivirus protection components will keep operating until the station license key stored on Dr.Web Server expires. There will be no software updates. When the connection to Dr.Web Server is lost, a station authorized for the Mobile mode will update its virus databases directly from Dr.Web GUS.

The operating principles of stations in the Mobile mode are described in the Dr.Web Enterprise Security Suite Administrator Manual. |
