Editing device information

Only users with the Administrator role can change device information.

To manually edit device information:

  1. Connect to the Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Networks Server through the web interface using the Administrator account.
  2. On the Devices tab in the Assets section, select the relevant device.

    The details area appears in the right part of the web interface window.

  3. Click the Edit button.

    The details area will show the following tabs for viewing and editing device information: Addresses, Settings and Custom fields.

  4. On the Addresses tab in the details area, specify the MAC- and/or IP addresses of the device.

    You can specify multiple IP addresses for the same network interface of the device. To generate a list of IP addresses, perform one of the following actions:

    • If you want to add an IP address, click the Add IP address button.
    • If you want to remove an IP address, click the button icon located on the right of the field containing the IP address.
  5. If the device has multiple network interfaces, generate a list of network interfaces of the device and specify the corresponding MAC- and/or IP addresses for them.

    To generate a list of network interfaces of a device, perform one of the following actions:

    • If you want to add a network interface, click the Add interface button located under the group of settings of the last network interface of the device.
    • If you want to delete a network interface, click the Delete interface button located on the right of the name of the network interface of the device (if there are two or more network interfaces).
    • If you want to define a different name for a network interface, click the button icon located on the right of the current name and enter the new name for the network interface in the field that opens.
  6. On the Settings tab in the details area, specify the relevant values in the fields that identify the device information.
  7. On the Addresses and Settings tabs in the details area, enable or disable automatic updates for the relevant information about the device. To do so, use the Autoupdate toggle buttons located above the fields that have automatic update capability. For the status field, the autoupdate toggle button is named Automatically change to Archived status due to the specific features of automatically changing the statuses of devices.
  8. On the Custom fields tab in the details area, create a list of custom fields and their values if necessary.
  9. Click Save.

    This button is unavailable if not all required information is specified in the device settings or if invalid values have been defined. The tab containing settings requiring corrected values is marked by the Warning icon.

After saving changes to device information, you can add or edit the Process Control settings for a device.
