Updating Mobile Dr.Web Agents

Top  Previous  Next

If user's computer, laptop or mobile device has no connection to Dr.Web Server for a long time, to receive updates opportunely from Dr.Web GUS, it is recommended to set the Agent mobile mode of operation on the station.

In the mobile mode, the Agent tries to connect to the Server three times and, if unsuccessful, performs an HTTP update. The Agent tries continuously to find the Server at interval of about a minute.

The mobile mode will be available in the Agent settings if the mobile mode has been allowed in the Control Center, in the Anti-virus Network → Permissions → <operating_system> → General → Run in mobile mode.

When the Agent is functioning in the mobile mode, the Agent is not connected to Dr.Web Server. All changes made for this workstation at the Server, will take effect once the Agent mobile mode is switched off and the connection with the Server is re-established.

 

In the mobile mode only virus databases are updated.

Description of mobile mode configuration at the Agent side is given in the User Manual.
