Creating a new communication data package for a sensor
If necessary, you can create a new communication data package for a sensor (for example, if you need to update the certificate used for connecting the sensor to the Server).
To create a new communication data package for a sensor:
- Connect to the Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Networks Server through the web interface using the Administrator account.
- Select Settings → Deployment.
- Select the node tile of the sensor for which you want to create a new communication data package.
The details area appears in the right part of the web interface window.
- Click the Get new communication data package button. If the button is not displayed on the toolbar, click the button and select the desired item in the menu that opens.
- In the Generating a new communication data package window that opens:
- Enter the Server IP address that the sensor will use to connect to the Server.
- Enter password for protecting the certificate in the communication data package.
The password must meet the following requirements:
- Must contain between 8 and 256 ASCII characters.
- Must contain one or more uppercase letters of the English alphabet.
- Must contain one or more lowercase letters of the Latin alphabet.
- Must contain one or more numerals.
- Must contain no more than three consecutive repeated characters.
- Click the Create file button.
The Server generates a new communication data package for the selected sensor, then the browser saves the downloaded file. Depending on your browser settings, your screen may show a window in which you can change the path and name of the saved file.
- On the sensor computer return the sensor to the initial state using the kics4net-reset-to-defaults.sh script that reverts the node to the initial state. The script is located on the computer with the installed application component in the /opt/kaspersky/kics4net/sbin/ folder.
- Connect to the sensor through the web interface.
- On the sensor web interface page, upload the new communication data package.
The new communication data package is uploaded the same way it is uploaded when adding a sensor using a communication data package.
