Configuring Wi-Fi Control Task Settings

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

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.
   • To configure the application for a single protected device, select the Devices tab and open the Application settings window.

     If an active Kaspersky Security Center policy is applied to a device and blocks changes to application settings, then these settings cannot be edited in the Application settings window.

   The Properties: Wi-Fi Control window opens.

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 scheduled task launch settings.
6. Click OK.

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.
