A predefined network zone is a specific group of IP addresses or subnets. Using a predefined network zone, you can use the same rules for several IP addresses or subnets, not creating a separate rule for each IP address or subnet. The network zone can be used as a value for the --remote option. Kaspersky Endpoint Security has three predefined network zones with specific names:

  • Public. Add a network address or subnet to this zone, if it is assigned to networks that are not protected by any anti-virus applications, firewalls, or filters (for example, for Internet cafe networks).
  • Local. Add a network address or subnet to this zone, if it is assigned to networks whose users are trusted to access files and printers on this computer (for example, a LAN or home network).
  • Trusted. This zone is intended for a safe network in which the computer is not exposed to attacks or unauthorized data access attempts.

You cannot create or delete a network zone. You can add and delete IP addresses subnets from the network zone.
