Manually connecting to the Administration Server. Klmover utility

January 20, 2022

ID 194563

The Network Agent distribution kit includes the klmover utility, which is intended for managing the connection with the Administration Server.

After installation of Network Agent, the utility is located in the /opt/kaspersky/klnagent64/bin directory. Depending on the utilized keys, it performs the following actions when started:

  • Connects Network Agent to the Administration Server with the specified settings.
  • Writes the operation results to the event log file or displays them on the screen.

Utility syntax

klmover [-logfile <file name>] {-address <server address>} [-pn <port number>] [-ps <SSL port number>] [-nossl] [-cert <path to certificate file>] [-silent] [-dupfix]

Description of keys:

  • -logfile <file name> – write the utility completion results to the specified file. If this key is not used, the results and error messages are sent to stdout.
  • -address <server address> – address of the Administration Server used for connection. This can be the IP address, NetBIOS or DNS name of the computer.
  • -pn <port number> – number of the port over which a non-encrypted connection to the Administration Server will be established. Port 14000 is used by default.
  • -ps <SSL port number> – number of the SSL port over which the encrypted connection to the Administration Server will be established using the SSL protocol. Port 13000 is used by default.
  • -nossl – use a non-encrypted connection to the Administration Server. If this key is not specified, the Agent is connected to the Server over the encrypted SSL protocol.
  • -cert <path to certificate file> – use the specified certificate file for authentication of access the new Administration Server. If the key is not in use, Network Agent receives a certificate upon the first connection to the Administration Server.
  • -silent – start the utility in non-interactive mode. Using this key may be useful if, for example, the utility is started from a startup script during user registration.
  • -dupfix – the key is used if Network Agent was installed using a method other than with the distribution kit, such as restoration from a disk image.
  • -cloningmode 1 – switch to the cloning mode.
  • -cloningmode 0 – switch from the cloning mode.
