Planning Kaspersky Security Center deployment

When planning the deployment of Kaspersky Security Center components on an organization's network, you must take into account the size and scope of the project; specifically, the following factors:

• Total number of devices
• Number of MSP clients

One Administration Server can support a maximum of 100,000 devices. If the total number of devices on an organization's network exceeds 100,000, multiple Administration Servers must be deployed on the service provider side and combined into a hierarchy for convenient centralized management.

Up to 500 virtual servers can be created on a single Administration Server, so an individual Administration Server is required for each 500 MSP clients.

At the stage of deployment planning, the assignment of the special certificate X.509 to the Administration Server must be considered. Assignment of the X.509 certificate to the Administration Server may be useful in the following cases (partial list):

• Inspecting secure socket layer (SSL) traffic by means of an SSL termination proxy
• Specifying required values in certificate fields
• Providing the required encryption strength of a certificate
