Rules for editing configuration files of Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Linux Nodes

When editing a configuration file, adhere to the following rules:

• Specify all mandatory settings in the configuration file. You can specify individual task settings without a file using the command line.
• If a parameter belongs to a certain section, specify it only in this section. You can specify the settings in any order within the one section.
• Enclose the names of sections in square brackets [ ].
• Specify the values of parameters in the parameter name=value format (spaces between the parameter name and its value are not processed).

  Example: [ScanScope.item_0000] AreaDesc=Home AreaMask.item_0000=*doc Path=/home

  Space and tab characters are ignored before the first quotation mark and after the last quotation mark of a string value, and at the beginning and end of a string value that is not enclosed in quotation marks.

• If you need to specify several values for a parameter, repeat the parameter the same number of times as the number of values that you want to specify.

  Example: AreaMask.item_0000=*xml AreaMask.item_0001=*doc

• Be case-sensitive when entering values for the following types of parameters:
  • Names (masks) of scanned objects and excluded objects.
  • Names (masks) of threats.

  The remaining parameter values are not case-sensitive.

• Specify Boolean parameter values as follows: Yes / No.
• Use quotation marks to enclose string values containing a space character (for example, names of files and directories and their paths, expressions containing the date and time in the format "YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS").

  You can enter the remaining values with or without quotation marks.

  Example: AreaDesc="Scanning of email databases"

  A single quotation mark in the beginning or end of a string is considered an error.
