This article describes the procedure for centralized installation of application components when using the script named kics4net-deploy-<application version number>.bundle.sh.

Prior to centrally installing components, you must perform the necessary actions to prepare for application installation.

The application components centralized installation script uses data that was saved in the installation settings file. Running the script does not require root privileges for the current user account on the computer from which the installation will be performed.

To centrally install components of Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Networks on computers:

On the computer from which the centralized installation will be performed, go to the folder with the unpacked files of scripts and packages for installing, verifying and removing application components, included in the distribution kit.

Enter the command for running the application components centralized installation script:
bash kics4net-deploy-<application version>.bundle.sh

A language menu will be displayed on the screen.
Select your language. Depending on the version of the application, the selected language will be used as follows:
- In Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Networks 4.2, only for the centralized installation menu. To change the language for Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Networks components, select a different language after installing the Server during initial application setup.
- In Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Networks 4.2.1, for the centralized installation menu and Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Networks components. After the Server is installed, application components will use the language selected at this stage.
In the menu for selecting the installation option, select Run new installation.

4. If you want to configure additional settings for added sensor nodes, select Change sensor settings and configure the relevant settings for each added node.
5. Select Change the user running the installation in the menu to specify a user account with root privileges that will be used for centralized installation of application components. This user account will be used on those nodes for which no additional account was specified when configuring advanced settings.
When done configuring the settings, select Save settings and start installation.
You will be prompted to enter the password of the user running the installation.
Enter the password of the user running the installation. The password must be entered twice: first in the SSH password prompt and then in the BECOME password prompt.
