Installing Kaspersky XDR Expert

Kaspersky Deployment Toolkit deploys Kaspersky XDR Expert by using the configuration file. KDT automatically deploys the Kubernetes cluster within which the Kaspersky XDR Expert components and other infrastructure components are installed.

To install Kaspersky XDR Expert:

  1. Unpack the downloaded distribution package with KDT on the administrator host.
  2. Read the End User License Agreement (EULA) of KDT located in the distribution package with the Kaspersky XDR Expert components.

    When you start using KDT, you accept the terms of the EULA of KDT.

    You can read the EULA of KDT after the deployment of Kaspersky XDR Expert. The file is located in the /home/kdt/ directory of the user who runs the deployment of Kaspersky XDR Expert.

  3. On the administrator host, run the following commands to start deployment of Kaspersky XDR Expert. Specify the path to the archive with the Kaspersky XDR Expert components and the path to the configuration file that you filled out earlier.

    chmod +x kdt

    kdt apply -k <path_to_XDR_archive> -i <path_to_configuration_file>

  4. Read the End User License Agreement (EULA) and the Privacy Policy of KSMP. The text is displayed in the command line window. Press the space bar to view the next text segment. Then, when prompted, enter the following values:
    1. Enter y if you understand and accept the terms of the EULA.

      Enter n if you do not accept the terms of the EULA. To use Kaspersky XDR Expert, you must accept the terms of the EULA.

    2. Enter y if you understand and accept the terms of the Privacy Policy, and you agree that your data will be handled and transmitted (including to third countries) as described in the Privacy Policy.

      Enter n if you do not accept the terms of the Privacy Policy.

      To use Kaspersky XDR Expert, you must accept the terms of the EULA and the Privacy Policy.

    After you accept the EULA and the Privacy Policy, KDT deploys the Kaspersky XDR Expert components within the Kubernetes cluster on the target hosts.

    You can read the EULA and the Privacy Policy of KSMP after the deployment of Kaspersky XDR Expert. The files are located in the /home/kdt/ directory of the user who runs the deployment of Kaspersky XDR Expert.

  5. On your DNS server, register the domain names to connect to the Kaspersky XDR Expert services.

    By default, the Kaspersky XDR Expert services are available at the following addresses:

    • console.<smp_domain>—Access to the KSMP Console functionality.
    • admsrv.<smp_domain>—Access to the Administration Server functionality.
    • kuma.<smp_domain>—Access to the KUMA functionality.
    • api.<smp_domain>—Access to the Kaspersky XDR Expert API functionality.
    • psql.<smp_domain>—Interaction with the DBMS (PostgreSQL or PostgresPro).

      Register the psql.<smp_domain> domain name if you installed the DBMS inside the Kubernetes cluster on the DBMS node and you need to connect to the DBMS.

    The listed domain names must correspond to the IP address of the Kubernetes cluster gateway.

  6. Sign in to the KSMP Console and to the KUMA Console.

    The default KSMP Console address is https://console.<smp_domain>:443.

    The default KUMA Console address is https://kuma.<smp_domain>:7220.
