Hierarchical List of Anti-Virus Network
In the middle part of the window there is a hierarchical list of the anti-virus network. The list (catalog) represents the tree structure of the anti-virus network elements. The nodes in this structure are groups and workstations within these groups.
You can perform the following through the hierarchical list elements:
•Left-click the name of a group or station to display the control menu (at the left part of the window) of corresponding element and brief element information on a property pane (at the right part of the window). •Left-click the icon of the group to open or to hide the contents of a group. •Left-click the icon of the station to open the properties sheet of this station.
|
To select several elements of the hierarchical list, press and hold CTRL or SHIFT during selection.
|
The appearance of the icon depends on the type and status of this element (see table below).

If you clear the flag, all empty groups (not containing stations) will be hidden. It may be convenient to remove extra data, for example, when there are many empty groups. •for stations: ▫Show station ID—show station unique identifiers in the hierarchical list. ▫Show station names—show station names in the hierarchical list, if such are given.

•To select the parameter to use for sorting, set the one of the following flags (only one parameter can be selected): ▫Identifier—sort by unique identifiers of stations. ▫Name—sort by names of stations. ▫Address—sort by network addresses of stations. Stations without network address will be displayed in random order without sorting. ▫Creation date—sort by date of creation of a station account on the Server. •To select the sorting order, set the one of the following flags: ▫Sort ascending. ▫Sort descending.
Property Pane
The property pane shows the properties and settings of workstations.
To display the property pane
1.Select the name of a station or a group in the hierarchical list. 2.A pane with properties of selected workstation or group opens in the right pane of Dr.Web Security Control Center. Detailed description of these settings is given in the Editing Groups and Station Properties.
