Getting started if Kaspersky Security Center Administration Server is used

After you install Kaspersky Security Plug-in for ConnectWise Automate, deploy it on Kaspersky Security Center Administration Server (or Administration Servers).

Kaspersky Security Plug-in for ConnectWise Automate adds new role detection rules to the ConnectWise Automate database. The new roles are Kaspersky Security Administration Server and Kaspersky Security Network Agent. These roles are used by the Plug-in to automatically detect the Administration Server computers, and the client computers, managed by the Administration Server. The Plug-in is then deployed on computers that have Administration Server installed. However, role detection and Plug-in deployment occur not immediately but instead during the scheduled synchronization procedure. You can force the process of role detection and Plug-in deployment manually using the tools provided by ConnectWise Automate.

You can perform the Plug-in deployment procedure at any level: for a client, a location, or an individual computer. When you deploy the Plug-in for a higher level, it is deployed for all sublevels as well. For example, when you deploy the Plug-in for a location, it is deployed for all the computers at this location that have Kaspersky Security Center installed.

To get started using the Plug-in:

  1. In the ConnectWise Automate navigation tree, use the context menu to execute the CommandsInventoryUpdate Config command for all Kaspersky Security Center Administration Servers and computers, managed by the Administration Servers, or for the computers' parent client or location.

    When you execute the command for a client or location, the command is applied to all the computers under this client or location. As a result, the configuration of the selected computers is updated and includes new Plug-in role definitions.

  2. Also in the ConnectWise Automate navigation tree, use the context menu to execute the CommandsInventoryResend System Info command for all Administration Servers and computers, managed by the Administration Servers, or for the computers' parent client or location.

The Automate Agents on the selected computers send the updated system information, including information on the detected roles, to the ConnectWise Automate server. You can now gain access to the Kaspersky Security Plug-in for ConnectWise Automate dashboard.
