If necessary, you can create a new communication data package for a sensor (for example, if you need to update the certificate used for connecting the sensor to the Server).

To create a new communication data package for a sensor:

  1. Connect to the Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Networks Server through the web interface using the Administrator account.
  2. Select Settings → Deployment.
  3. Select the node tile of the sensor for which you want to create a new communication data package.

    The details area appears in the right part of the web interface window.

  4. Click the Get new communication data package button.

    A window with a confirmation prompt opens.

  5. In the prompt window, click OK.

    The Server generates a new communication data package for the selected sensor, then the browser saves the downloaded file. Depending on your browser settings, your screen may show a window in which you can change the path and name of the saved file.

  6. On the sensor computer return the sensor to the initial state using the kics4net-reset-to-defaults.sh script that reverts the node to the initial state. The script is located on the computer with the installed application component in the /opt/kaspersky/kics4net/sbin/ folder.
  7. Connect to the sensor through the web interface.
  8. On the sensor web interface page, upload the new communication data package.

    The new communication data package is uploaded the same way it is uploaded when adding a sensor using a communication data package.
