If user's Mac has no connection to Dr.Web Server for a long time, Dr.Web Agent Mobile mode of operation is used on the station to receive updates opportunely from Dr.Web GUS.
|
The Mobile mode will be available in the Agent settings if the Mobile mode is allowed in the Control Center, in the Anti-virus Network → Permissions → macOS → General → Run in mobile mode. |
In the Mobile mode, the Agent tries to connect to the Dr.Web Server three times and, if unsuccessful, performs an HTTP update from the GUS. The Agent tries continuously to find the Dr.Web Server at interval of about a minute.
When the Agent is functioning in the Mobile mode, the Agent is not connected to Dr.Web Server. All changes made for this station at the Dr.Web Server, will take effect once the Agent Mobile mode is switched off and the connection with the Dr.Web Server is re-established.
|
In the mobile mode only virus databases are updated.
In the Mobile mode, the Agent operation is not limited in time, but the virus databases are updated from GUS only till the expiration date of the station license key, information on which has been saved by the Agent at last connection to the Dr.Web Server (the license key itself is stored on the Dr.Web Server). |
