Only a user with the Administrator role can change the statuses of assets.
You can change the status for one selected asset or for multiple selected assets simultaneously. If one asset with the Archived status is selected, the status of this asset can be changed only when information about the asset is changed. If multiple assets are selected, you can assign any status to these assets, regardless of their current status.
The application automatically changes the status of an Archived asset if it displays activity. Depending on the current asset management mode, the application assigns either the Authorized or Unauthorized status to the detected asset.
You can change the statuses of assets in the following ways:
To change the status of assets when working with the table:
Connect to the Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Networks Server through a web browser using the account credentials of a user with the Administrator role.
Select the Assets section.
In the assets table, select the assets whose status you want to change.
The details area appears in the right part of the web interface window.
Depending on the current status and number of selected assets, perform one of the following actions:
If multiple assets are selected, click the button with the name of the relevant status.
If one asset with the Authorized or Unauthorized status is selected, click the button containing the name of the necessary status (a button containing the name of the current status is not displayed).
When working with the network map, you can change the statuses of known assets represented by nodes on the network map.
You can select the relevant nodes individually or as part of collapsed groups that include the relevant assets. When a collapsed group is selected, all assets in the child groups of any nesting level are also included in the asset selection.
To change the status of assets when working with the network map:
Connect to the Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Networks Server through a web browser using the account credentials of a user with the Administrator role.
In the Network map section, select one or multiple objects representing nodes of assets and/or collapsed groups.
To select multiple nodes and/or groups, perform one of the following actions:
Hold down the SHIFT key and use your mouse to select a rectangular area containing the relevant objects.
Hold down the CTRL key and use your mouse to select the relevant objects.
The details area appears in the right part of the web interface window. The details area shows the total number of selected nodes and groups while also showing the quantitative distribution of selected objects by type.
If the selected objects belong to different types or categories of devices, you can exclude certain types of objects (for example, nodes of devices that are unknown to the application) or categories (for example, PLC). To do so, clear the check box next to the name of the category or type.
Depending on the current status and number of selected nodes, perform one of the following actions:
If multiple nodes representing known assets are selected, click the button with the name of the relevant status.
If one node representing an asset with the Authorized or Unauthorized status is selected and you want to assign a different status to this asset, click the button containing the name of the necessary status (a button containing the name of the current status is not displayed).
