Turning on, turning off, and restarting client devices remotely

Kaspersky Security Center Linux allows you to manage client devices remotely by turning on, shutting down, or restarting them.

To remotely manage client devices:

1. In the main menu, go to Assets (Devices) → Tasks.
2. Click Add.

   The New task wizard starts.

3. In the Task type drop-down list, select Manage devices.
4. Select an option to specify the administration group, the device selection, or the devices to which the task applies.
5. Select the command (turn on, turn off, or restart).
6. If necessary, configure the following settings for the turn off and restart commands:
   • Turn on the Prompt user for confirmation toggle button to specify the user prompt message and the time intervals after which you want to repeat the prompt and to restart or turn of the devices.
   • Select the Wait time before forced closure of applications in blocked sessions (min) check box and specify the time.

   These settings are applicable to Windows client devices only. Linux devices will be restarted or turned off immediately after the task is complete.

7. Run the created task.

After the task is completed, the command (turn on, turn off, or restart) will be executed on the selected devices.
