Configuring a connection between an RPC network storage and Kaspersky Security for Windows Server
You can run Network Attached Storage Protection tasks if the active key supports network attached storage protection. If you run a Network Attached Storage Protection task when the active key does not support network attached storage protection, the task returns an error. In this case, Kaspersky Security for Windows Server does not protect network attached storages.
To protect an RPC network storage, you need to configure the connection of the network attached storage to Kaspersky Security for Windows Server.
To configure a connection between a network attached storage and Kaspersky Security for Windows Server:
- Configure the following settings on the server with Kaspersky Security for Windows Server installed:
- Add a network attached storage to Kaspersky Security for Windows Server.
- In Kaspersky Security for Windows Server Console, specify the user account under which you want to run the RPC Network Storage Protection task.
- In the local group policy editor, configure the security settings of local policies.
- In the Windows firewall settings window, configure the rules of outbound and inbound connections in Windows firewall.
- If necessary, install a connector application for the RPC network storage to be protected by Kaspersky Security for Windows Server.
You can find information on how to install the connector application for the protected network attached storage in the accompanying manual.
- In the network attached storage, configure the following settings:
- Enable the anti-virus protection feature (vscan).
- Add the user account under which the RPC Network Storage Protection task must be run to the Backup Operators group.
You can find information on how to configure your network attached storage in the accompanying manual.
The connection between an RPC network storage and Kaspersky Security for Windows Server is established.
