Zeroconf polling

This polling type is supported only for Linux-based distribution points.

Kaspersky Security Center Linux can poll networks that have devices with IPv6 addresses. In this case, IP ranges are not specified and Kaspersky Security Center Linux polls the whole network by using zero-configuration networking (also referred to as Zeroconf). To start using Zeroconf, you must install the avahi-browse utility on the Linux device that polls networks—Administration Server or a distribution point.

To enable Zeroconf polling:

  1. In the main menu, go to Discovery & deployment → DiscoveryIP ranges.
  2. Click the Properties button.
  3. In the opened window, turn on the Use Zeroconf to poll IPv6 networks toggle button.

After that, Kaspersky Security Center Linux starts to poll your network. In this case, the specified IP ranges are ignored.
