Context menu options
Right-click on a client to bring up a menu that enables applying of other
features to effectively filter events. Most options are self-explanatory, but
here are the others:
Select by ‘Client A’
Only records containing the thread ‘Client A’ in the same attribute (column),
where the context menu has been brought up will be selected. The thread
Client A will be automatically replaced by the value from the cell, where the
context menu has been brought up.
New Task
(more details are found on page 43)
Configuration Task - enables a modified configuration to be applied to
the client. In fact, as many other clients as required may be included
in this task at the appropriate window.
On-Demand Scan - enables a NOD32 scan of the client machine. In
fact, as many other clients as required may be included in this task at
the appropriate window.
Update Now - by default, the client will check for virus signature
updates every hour. This task will force the client to check for updates
(see interval defined by the NOD32 Control Center settings). In fact,
as many other clients as required may be included in this task at the
appropriate window.
Add to Group...
This allows you to create ‘groups’ of clients within your network so, for
example, different configuration settings can be pushed to specific groups.
Request Configuration
If the client is not currently connected to RAS, ie: the machine is switched
off, selecting this option will show the configuration is requested in the
Clients window in RAC, so that when the client workstation is running
again, the message will change to Ready and you can right-click on the
client and choose Configuration...
Configuration...
This will bring up a window called Client Properties and the Configuration
tab. You can retrieve a configuration from a remote client workstation to
View it or keep the parameters by clicking on Save As... The latter may
be useful if the client’s configuration is worth keeping and then pushing
to other clients in the network or group. Having saved it by giving the
configuration a new name, the Configuration Editor will open (in case there
are one or two amendments to be made), then go to File > Save and close
the Configuration Editor. You will then be returned to the Client Properties
window where you can choose New Task. In the next window, choose
Select and locate your newly saved configuration, click Next, select the
clients you wish to apply the configuration to, click Next, review the task
details and click Finish. Within 5 minutes (default) the clients will pick up the
new configuration.
Properties
This will bring up a window called Client Properties and the General tab
where you can get an overview of the client’s details.
