Configuring request throttling settings

The request throttling feature allows restricting the flow of events with low importance from Kaspersky Endpoint Agent to the Central Node component. Event importance is evaluated by the application.

To configure the request throttling settings:

1. Expand the Managed devices node in the Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console tree.
2. Select the administration group for which you want to configure application settings.
3. Perform one of the following actions in the details pane of the selected administration group:
   • To configure application settings for a group of protected devices, select the Policies tab and open the Properties: <Policy name> window.
     1. In the tree of Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console, expand the Managed devices node.
     2. Expand the administration group whose policy settings you want to configure, and select the Policies tab in the results pane.
     3. Select the policy you want to configure.
     4. Open the Properties: <Policy name> window in one of the following ways:
        • Select the Properties option in the context menu of the policy.
        • Click the Configure policy settings link in the results pane of the selected policy.
        • Double-click the required policy.

        The Properties: <Policy name> window opens.

   • To configure the settings of a task or application for an individual protected device, select the Devices tab and go to the settings of a local task or the application settings.
4. In the Telemetry collection servers section select the General settings subsection.
5. In the Throttling settings group of settings, you can perform the following actions:
   • Enable or disable the Enable throttling setting.

     The setting is enabled by default.

   • Specify the number of events in the Maximum events per hour field.

     The application analyzes telemetry data flow and restricts transmission of events with low importance if the number of transmitted events tends to exceed the value specified in this field. The default value is 3000 events per hour.

   • Specify the threshold for the flow of events of the same type with low importance in the Percentage of exceeding the events limit field.

     If the flow of events of the same type with low importance exceeds the threshold value specified in this field as a percentage of the total number of events, transmission of events of this type is restricted. You can specify a value from 5% to 100%. The default value is 15%.

6. In the upper right corner of the settings group, change the switch from Policy not enforced to Under policy.

   The default switch position is Under policy.

7. Click OK.
