Configuring Wi-Fi Control task

To configure the Wi-Fi Control task settings, take the following steps:

1. In the Application Console tree, expand the Computer Control node.
2. Select the Wi-Fi Control child node.
3. Click the Properties link in the details pane of the Wi-Fi Control node.

   The Task settings window appears.

4. On the General tab:
   • In the Task mode section, select the mode for the Wi-Fi Control task:
     • Active.
       

       Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Nodes controls connections to Wi-Fi networks in accordance with the specified task settings. If the list of exclusions for trusted Wi-Fi networks is applied in the task, then the application blocks connections to all Wi-Fi networks, except those indicated in the list. If the list of exclusions is not applied in the task, then the application blocks connections to all Wi-Fi networks.

     • Notify Only.
       

       Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Nodes does not control connections to Wi-Fi networks. Instead, in the task log it only records information about connections to available Wi-Fi networks and the application's response to connection attempts. Connection to all Wi-Fi networks is allowed.

       This mode is set by default.

   • Clear or select the Allow connections to the following Wi-Fi networks check box.
     

     The check box enables or disables use of the list of exclusions for trusted Wi-Fi networks.

     If the check box is selected, then Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Nodes will not block Wi-Fi networks added to the list of exclusions. If you had previously specified an exclusion list and select the check box again, then the application automatically applies the latest version of the list.

     If the check box is cleared, then the application blocks connections to all Wi-Fi networks. The exclusion list cannot be edited. The specified exclusion list is ignored, but it is saved in the task settings.

     The check box is selected by default.

   • If needed, edit the list of exclusions for trusted Wi-Fi networks.
5. On the Schedule and Advanced tabs, configure the task start schedule.
6. Click the OK button.

Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Nodes applies new task settings immediately. Information about the date and time when the settings were modified, and the values of task settings before and after modification, are saved in the task log.
