Installing Dr.Web Agent via the Installer |
Agent installer differs from the installation package that it does not contain parameters for connecting to the Server and for authorization of the station at the Server. Dr.Web Agent installers are available on the installation page of Dr.Web Security Control Center.
Local Installation on Stations under Android OS, Linux OS, macOS Under Android OS, Linux OS, macOS, installers for Dr.Web Agent installation similar to the stand-alone version are available.
If you perform the installation via the installer without the configuration file, you must specify the Server address to connect on station manually. You can either specify authorization parameters manually or leave them blank. At this, the following variants of connection to the Server are available:
Local Installation on Stations under Windows OS The following types of Dr.Web Agent installers are provided: •drwinst.exe Network installer performs the installation of the Agent only. After connecting ti the Server, the Agent downloads and installs necessary anti-virus package components. •drweb-11.05.2-<build>-esuite-agent-full-windows.exe Full Installer performs the installation of the Agent and anti-virus package at a time. If you use these installers, you can either specify parameters of authorization and connection to the Server manually or leave them blank.
The following variants of connection to the Server are available:
Local Installation via the Network Installer under Windows OS The drwinst.exe Agent network installer is provided to install the Agent under Windows OS only. If the network installer is run in the normal installation mode (i.e. without the /instMode remove switch) on stations where the installation has already been performed, this will not incur any actions. The installer program terminates with a help window, contains available switches. There are two modes of installation via the Network installer: 1.Background mode—runs if the background mode switch is specified. 2.Graphical mode—default mode. Runs if the background mode switch is not specified. With the network installer, you can also install Dr.Web Agent on a workstation remotely via Dr.Web Security Control Center (see p. Remote Installation of Dr.Web Agent). To install Dr.Web Agent on a workstation in the background mode of the installer 1.From the workstation, on which you want to install the anti-virus software, enter the network folder of the Agent installation (by default at the Server installation, it is the webmin/install folder of the Server installation folder, further it can be changed) or download from the installation page of the Control Center the drwinst.exe executable file and drwcsd-certificate.pem certificate. Run the drwinst.exe file with the /silent yes background mode switch. By default, if the drwinst.exe file launched without Server connection parameters, it will use the Multicast mode to scan the network for Dr.Web Servers and will try to install the Agent from the first found Server.
The drwinst.exe file also may be used with the optional command line switches: •If the Multicast mode is not used, it is recommended to specify a domain name for Dr.Web Server directly (it must be registered on the DNS service):
It makes the configuration of the anti-virus network more easy especially in case you reinstall Dr.Web Server on a different computer. •You can expressly specify the Server address as follows:
•Using the /regagent yes switch during the installation will allow you to register the Agent in the list.
2.After the installation is completed, the software of the Agent is installed on a computer (anti-virus package is not installed yet). 3.After the station has been approved at the Server (if it is required by the Server settings), the anti-virus package will be automatically installed. 4.Restart the computer on Agent request. To install Dr.Web Agent on a workstation in the graphical mode of the installer From the workstation, on which you want to install the anti-virus software, enter the network folder of the Agent installation (by default at the Server installation, it is the webmin/install folder of the Server installation folder, further it can be changed) or download from the installation page of the Control Center the drwinst.exe executable file and drwcsd-certificate.pem certificate. Run the drwinst.exe file. A window of the Installation wizard of Dr.Web Agent will be opened. Further actions on the Agent installation on the stations via the graphical mode of the network installer are similar to the actions on the installation via the installation package, but without Server connection settings, if they have not been specified in the corresponding command line switch.
