To connect to Kaspersky Security Center Administration Server:

  1. In the Start menu, select Kaspersky Security Integration Tool for MSP.
  2. In the window that opens, select the Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business solution to connect to Kaspersky Security Center Administration Server.
  3. You can connect to Kaspersky Security Center Administration Server in one of the following ways:
    • By providing the connection parameters for the computer on which the Administration Server is installed.

      If you selected this way of connection, specify the following connection settings. Neither of the fields can be blank.

      • Address—Address of the computer, on which the Administration Server is installed. You can specify this value as an IP-address or as a domain name of the computer.
      • User name—User name to connect to the computer, on which the Administration Server is installed, i.e. to the computer, whose address you specified in the Address field.
      • Password—Password to connect to the computer, on which the Administration Server is installed, i.e. to the computer, whose address you specified in the Address field.
    • By selecting Administration Server certificate.

      In this case, you do not have to provide the connection parameters for the computer on which the Administration Server is installed. Kaspersky Security Integration Tool for MSP uses the certificate of Kaspersky Security Center Administration Server to connect to this Administration Server. Usage of the certificate guarantees that Kaspersky Security Integration Tool for MSP connects to the Administration Server from which the certificate was downloaded, that is, the certificate identifies the Administration Server the same way, as if you provide the Administration Server address.

      The Administration Server certificate is created automatically during installation of the Administration Server and is stored in the %ProgramData%\Application Data\KasperskyLab\adminkit\1093\cert folder on the computer that has Administration Server installed. Before starting to use the Administration Server certificate for authentication, copy the certificate file, klserver.cer, on the computer on which Kaspersky Security Integration Tool for MSP is installed.

      To use Administration Server certificate:

      1. Click the Select Kaspersky Security Center Administration Server certificate link.
      2. In the dialog box displayed, select the Use Server certificate check box and navigate to the certificate file.
      3. Click OK to start using the selected certificate for connection.
  4. If you want to establish the connection to the Administration Server through a proxy server, select the Use proxy server check box. By default, this check box is cleared.

    If you selected the Use proxy server check box, provide the following proxy-server settings:

    • Address—Network address of the proxy server. Provide the address as a full domain name of the proxy server.
    • User name—User name to connect to the proxy server.
    • Password—Password to connect to the proxy server.
  5. Click the Proceed button to connect to the Administration Server by using the specified settings.

The system validates the provided settings and connects to the Administration Server.
