Creating an installation package

To create an installation package:

  1. In Web Console main window, select Device discovery and deployment → Deployment and assignment → Installation packages.

    This opens a list of installation packages downloaded to Web Console.

  2. Click Add.

    The wizard for creating an installation package will start. Follow the instructions of the Wizard.

  3. At the first page of the Wizard, select Create installation package for Kaspersky application.

    The Wizard will create an installation package from the distribution kit residing on Kaspersky servers. The list is updated automatically as new versions of applications are released. It is recommended to select this option to install Kaspersky Endpoint Security.

    You can also create an installation package from a file.

    Kaspersky Security Center Cloud Console does not allow creation of installation packages from a file.

  4. Select Kaspersky Endpoint Security distribution package. Information about the distribution kit will be displayed on the right.
  5. Read the information and click the Download and create installation package button. The installation package creation process starts.
  6. During creation of the installation package, accept the terms of the End User License Agreement and Privacy Policy. When prompted by the Wizard, read the License Agreement between you and Kaspersky and the Privacy Policy that describes the processing and transmission of data. To continue creating the installation package, you must confirm that you have fully read and accept the terms of the License Agreement and the Privacy Policy.

The installation package will be created and added to the Web Console. Using the installation package, you can install the application on devices in the corporate network or update the application version.

In the installation package properties, you can also configure the application installation settings (see the table below) on the Settings tab.

An installation package for Kaspersky Endpoint Security cannot be configured in Kaspersky Security Center Web Console versions lower than 14.2. Use the autoinstall.ini configuration file to configure settings.
