To centrally install components of Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Networks on computers:

  1. On the computer from which the centralized installation will be performed, go to the folder with the unpacked files of scripts and packages for installing, verifying and removing application components, included in the distribution kit. The files are located in the kics4net-release_<application version>/linux-centos subfolder.

    bash kics4net-deploy-<application version>.bundle.sh

    The screen prompts you to choose the language of the installation menu.

  3. Select the language that you want to use in the installation menu.

    The choice of the installation menu language does not affect the localization of the Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Networks components.

    4. If you want to configure additional settings for added sensor nodes, select Change sensor settings and configure the relevant settings for each added node.
    5. Use the Change the user running the installation menu item to specify the user account with root privileges that will be used for centralized installation of application components. This user account will be used on those nodes for which no additional account was specified when configuring advanced settings.
  6. When finished configuring the settings, select Save settings and start installation.

    You will be prompted to enter the password of the user running the installation.

  7. Enter the password of the user running the installation. The password must be entered twice: first in the SSH password prompt and then in the BECOME password prompt.
