This section provides information related to Kaspersky Endpoint Agent for Windows. This information may be partially or completely inapplicable to Kaspersky Endpoint Agent for Linux.

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. Open Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console.
  2. In the console tree, open the Policies folder.
  3. Select Kaspersky Endpoint Agent policy and open its properties window in one of the following ways:
    • Double-click the policy name.
    • Select Properties in the policy context menu.
    • Select the Configure policy settings item in the right part of the window.
  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.
