Next, depending on the rule set that you want to implement, you should select the appropriate check box in the rule set column. If you do not configure the rules by clicking the buttons next to the selected boxes, the default settings will be applied in the newly created rule set. If a policy is no longer applicable, you can remove it by selecting it and then clicking Delete. You can also delete multiple policies at the same time.
| |
|
| |
|
| :::You can select the Merge Rule sets check box only while deploying the Anti Spam, Web Protection, MWL Inclusion list, and MWL Exclusion list rule sets. This option is basically used for appending a new rule-set to an existing rules-sets.
| |
|
| |
|
| :::If you need to view the properties of an existing policy, you should select the check box next to the policy in the Policy task pane, and then click Properties. This will open the Properties window. This window displays information about the name of the policy, when it was created, to whom it was deployed, the rules configured, and whether the policy is applied to all subgroups. | | [[Image:debianlogo2.jpeg]] |

| '''I) Policies'''
| |
| | |
| The eScan Management Console helps Administrators simplify the remote administration of client computers on their network by providing features such as policies and group tasks.
| |
| | |
| The Policy page displays three buttons: New Policy, Properties, and Delete. They are described as follows:
| |
| | |
| New Policy
| |
| | |
| You can deploy policies or rules sets to computers based on your requirements. These policies allow to enable or configure certain eScan modules on the eScan client computers on your network.
| |
| | |
| For example, if you want to enable the scanning of USB drives when they are accessed by a specific group of users, you can simply create a computer group and add the users to that group. Thereafter, you can create a policy for the Endpoint Security module of eScan and then deploy it to that computer group.
| |
| | |
| If you want to create a new policy, you must click the Policies node under Managed Computers or under the appropriate group name in the console tree and then in the task pane, click Create New Policy. This will open a new window that allows you to configure the policy settings.
| |
| | |
| For this, you should first specify a name for the policy in the Enter Policy Name box. The Rule Sets section allows you to select the appropriate module. You can click the button next to the module name to configure the rules for the policy. If you simply check a module name without configuring its options, the default rules will be applied.
| |
| | |
| Sometimes, a group may have several subgroups within it. If you want to apply a policy to all the subgroups as well, you must select the Apply this to all subgroups check box.
| |
| | |
| After you have configured a policy you can click Deploy to create and deploy the policy to the computer group for which it has been created. When a policy is created, it is added to the policies table in the Policy page for the group. This table displays information such as the name of the policies, and the computer group to which it was last deployed and by whom.
| |
| | |
| The steps to create and deploy a rule set are as follows:
| |
| | |
| 1. In the eScan Management Console, in the left pane, under Dashboard, click Managed Computers.
| |
| 2. On the Managed Computers page, on the right pane, in the console tree, click Policies. OR To create a policy for a specific computer group, on the right pane, in the console tree, under the node for the specified group, click Policies.
| |
| 3. To create a new policy, on the Policy page, click Create New Policy.
| |
| 4. On the New Policy page, under Select Rule Sets For Policy, in the Enter Policy Name box, type a name for the policy.
| |
| 5. To create a rule set, under Rule Sets, select a check box and then click the button next to it to configure the settings for that option.
| |
| | |
| Note: When the button corresponding to a check box is clicked, its related configuration window is displayed. You need to configure the settings on the displayed window.
| |
| | |
| For example, to block a particular application from executing, you need to use the Endpoint Security module.
| |
| | |
| 1. Under Rule Sets, select the Endpoint Security check box, and then click the button next to it.
| |
| 2. On the Endpoint Security window, on the Application Control tab, ensure that the Enable Application Control check box is selected.
| |
| 3. In the Enter Application to Block box, type the path of the application, and then click Block.
| |
| 4. Close the Endpoint Security window.
| |
| | |
| 6. To apply the policy to all subgroups, select the Apply this for all subgroups check box.
| |
| 7. To deploy the policy, click Deploy.
| |
| | |
| Properties
| |
| | |
| It is often helpful to view the properties of a policy that you have created to evaluate and modify its settings as per your organization’s requirements. To view the properties of a policy, you should select the name of the policy in the policy table on the Policy page, and then click Properties.
| |
| | |
| This will open a tabbed window with two tabs: General and Rules.
| |
| | |
| The General tab displays the name of the policy, its history, and to whom it has been deployed. The Rule tab displays the rules associated with the policy.
| |
| | |
| The steps to view the properties of an existing policy are as follows:
| |
| | |
| 1. To view the properties an existing policy, in the eScan Management Console, in the left pane, under Dashboard, click Managed Computers.
| |
| 2. On the Managed Computers page, on the right pane, in the console tree, click Policies under Managed Computer or under the appropriate group.
| |
| 3. In the task pane, select the check box next to the policy whose properties you want to view, and then click Properties.
| |
| | |
| • To view the general properties, in the Properties window, click General.
| |
| • To view the rules, in the Properties window, click Rules.
| |
| | |
| Delete
| |
| | |
| At times, you may find that an existing policy is no longer applicable. In such cases, you can delete the policy by selecting the row corresponding to it on the Policy page and then clicking Delete.
| |
| | |
| The steps to delete an existing policy are as follows:
| |
| | |
| 1. To delete an existing policy, in the eScan Management Console, in the left pane, under Dashboard, click Managed Computers.
| |
| 2. On the Managed Computers page, on the right pane, in the console tree, click Policies under Managed Computer or under the appropriate group.
| |
| 3. In the task pane, select the check box next to the policy that you want to delete, and then click Delete.
| |
| | |
| Warning! Deleting a policy on the server will not affect the configuration on the client computers on which the policy has already been deployed.
| |
| | |
| '''II) Group Tasks'''
| |
| | |
| The eScan Management Console manages the computers and computer groups on a network by using tasks. A task may comprise the enabling or disabling or modules, filter, or profiles; starting and stopping of a server; specifying an update server; performing scans on the memory, system drives, or local drives, and forcing the client computer to download updates or forcing them to upgrade.
| |
| | |
| A task can be applied to a selected computer or computer group and can be configured to either to run on a schedule or to be started manually.
| |
| | |
| This page has the buttons: New Task, Start Task, Properties, Results, and Delete.
| |
| | |
| New Task
| |
| | |
| You can configure eScan to run specific modules at specific times on specific computers or computer groups by creating tasks.
| |
| | |
| For example, you can create a task for enabling the Web Protection module on a given computer group at a given time on say, every Wednesday and Saturday. On the other hand, you can create a task to run a memory scan on a computer group on a monthly basis.
| |
| | |
| These were a couple of examples. Nevertheless, the possibilities are endless.
| |
| | |
| To create a new task, you should click the Create New Task button on the Tasks For Specific Computers page of the eScan Management Console. This opens up the New Task Template page. On this page, you need to specify a name for the task, and the select the actions that should be executed when you run the task by selecting the appropriate options and check boxes.
| |
| Once you have selected the actions, you need to choose the computers and computer groups on which you want to run these tasks.
| |
| | |
| Note: You must be careful while selecting groups because when you select a group in the Select Computers/Groups list, its subgroups are selected automatically.
| |
| | |
| You can also configure a task to run automatically at a given time on a specified day or week or month by selecting Enable Scheduler in the Task scheduling settings section. If you want to run the task manually, you can do so by selecting the Manual Start option and then clicking Save. After you have created a task, you can run it manually by clicking Start Task on the Tasks For Specific Computers page.
| |
| | |
| When you create a new task, a new row is added to the table on the Tasks For Specific Computers page. This table contains information such as the name of the task; status of the task, whether it has been performed or not; the computer to which this task has been assigned, and the schedule type.
| |
| | |
| In addition, a View link for the row is created and added to the table. When you click this link, the result of running the task is displayed in the form a pie chart and a summary of this information is displayed below the chart.
| |
| | |
| The steps to create a new group task are as follows:
| |
| | |
| 1. In the New Task Template window, under Task Name, in the Task Name box, type a name for the task.
| |
| 2. Under Assigned Tasks, select the modules whose status you want to view. And then, configure the following:
| |
| | |
| • To specify an update server, in the Update Server IP box, type its IP address.
| |
| • To scan the computers, select the appropriate scan option.
| |
| • To force clients to update or upgrade themselves, select the Force Client to Download update/upgrade check box.
| |
| • To apply the setting to all subgroups, select Apply for subgroups check box.
| |
| • To schedule the task to run automatically, click Enable Scheduler. Alternately, you can configure the task to be started manually by clicking Manual Start.
| |
| | |
| 3. Select the days and time at which you want to run the task, and then click Save.
| |
| | |
| Start Task
| |
| | |
| It may so happen that you have already created a task to run on a group of computers at a scheduled time but for some reason, you may need to shut the computers down for some maintenance work. In such a situation, you can either modify the task, which means that you will have to change it back to the original settings once it has finished executing. Another problem here is that you need to remember all the settings. This is not practically possible.
| |
| | |
| This is an example of a situation where you need to run tasks manually. Fortunately, the eScan Management Console provides you with the Start Task option. To run an existing task, all you have to do is select the task in the Tasks For Specific Computers page and then click Start Task.
| |
| | |
| The steps to run an existing task manually are as follows:
