Installing Dr.Web Proxy Server as Part of Dr.Web Agent for Windows Installation

Installing Dr.Web Proxy Server as part of Dr.Web Agent for Windows installation

1.Specify Dr.Web Proxy Server settings as described in the Administrator Manual, section Remote configuration of proxy server. The settings must specified for the group in which you plan to create Dr.Web Proxy Server. In this case, the specified settings will be inherited by Dr.Web Proxy Server when it is created. You can also specify these settings after Dr.Web Proxy Server is created (either for a group in which case the settings will be inherited, or individually for Dr.Web Proxy Server), but before Dr.Web Proxy Server is linked to the account being created.

info

If the settings are not configured before Dr.Web Proxy Server is linked to its account, Dr.Web Proxy Server uses the settings provided by the installer. With these settings Dr.Web Proxy Server can connect only to the Dr.Web Server from which it was installed.

2.Create a station account via the Control Center as described in the Installing Dr.Web Agent via the Personal Installation Package section. When creating the station, set the Create linked Proxy Server flag and configure the available settings. In particular, specify the group with the settings from step 1 where you want to place Dr.Web Proxy Server.

warning

You can only change Dr.Web Proxy Server identifier during account creation.

3.Launch the Dr.Web Agent installation on the station using the personal installation package created in step 2.

4.After the installation, Dr.Web Agent will automatically download Dr.Web Proxy Server installer from Dr.Web Server and start it on the same station in the background. The Dr.Web Server certificate, address, and credentials for connection to Dr.Web Server are automatically written to the corresponding Dr.Web Proxy Server configuration files. Dr.Web Proxy Server settings for traffic forwarding will contain only the Dr.Web Server from which the installation was performed.

5.After installation, Dr.Web Proxy Server connects to the Dr.Web Server from which the installation was performed, to download the complete configuration file. If the Dr.Web Server settings were not specified in step 1, the configuration file will not be downloaded. The configuration specified by the installer will be used until the connected Dr.Web Server is configured.

6.Dr.Web Agent connects to Dr.Web Server only through the installed Dr.Web Proxy Server. Dr.Web Proxy Server usage will be transparent for the user.
