Installing applications using a remote installation task

Kaspersky Security Center Linux allows you to install applications on devices remotely, using remote installation tasks. Those tasks are created and assigned to devices through a dedicated wizard. To assign a task to devices more quickly and easily, you can specify devices in the wizard window in one of the following ways:

• Assign task to an administration group. In this case, the task is assigned to devices included in an administration group created earlier.
• Specify device addresses manually or import addresses from a list. You can specify DNS names, IP addresses, and IP subnets of devices to which you want to assign the task.
• Assign task to a device selection. In this case, the task is assigned to devices included in a selection created earlier. You can specify the default selection or a custom one that you created.

For correct remote installation on a device with no Network Agent installed, the following ports must be opened: a) TCP 139 and 445; b) UDP 137 and 138. By default, these ports are opened on all devices included in the domain. They are opened automatically by the remote installation preparation utility.
