Assigning connection tags to Light Agents

This functionality is available only if you use the application under an enterprise license.

You can assign connection tags for Light Agents in the Light Agent policy properties using the Administration Console, in the Light Agent for Windows local interface, and using the Web Console when creating or editing the Light Agent for Windows policy settings and the Light Agent for Linux policy settings (Application settingsConnection to SVMConnection tag).

To assign a connection tag to Light Agents in the Administration Console:

  1. Open Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console.
  2. In the Managed devices folder of the console tree, select the folder with the name of the administration group for whose protected virtual machines you want to configure the use of connection tags.
  3. In the workspace, select the Policies tab.
  4. In the list of policies, select a policy for Light Agent for Windows if you want to configure the settings for Light Agent for Windows, or select a policy for Light Agent for Linux if you want to configure the settings for Light Agent for Linux.
  5. Double-click to open the Properties: <Policy name> window.
  6. In the list on the left, select the Connection tag section.
  7. Select the Use tags for connecting Light Agents check box and enter a connection tag in the Tag field.

    For a connection tag, you can enter a text string up to 255 characters long. You can use any character except the ; character.

    Light Agents to which the tag is assigned can connect only to SVMs for which a connection to Light Agents with this tag is allowed.

  8. Click the Apply button.

To assign a connection tag to Light Agent for Windows in the local interface:

  1. Open the application settings window.
  2. In the left part of the window, in the Connection to SVM section, select the Connection tag section.

    If the settings in the local interface are not available, this means that the values of settings defined by the policy are used for all protected virtual machines of the administration group.

  3. Complete step 7 of the previous instructions.
  4. To save changes, click the Save button.
