4. You can verify the settings you have configured by sending a message
manually. In order to do this, press the
Test
button on the event
properties window
Notification
tab. As the result a test notification
window will open. In case of any errors detailed information about them
will be displayed.
2.9. Testing the notification system
and on-demand scan task
To test the notification system and on-demand scan task,
1. Try to copy the
Eicar
test virus to the protected computer. Copying it will
fail if the real-time protection task is running. You should receive a
notification that the virus has been detected and this event should also be
recorded in the
Events
node in the console tree.
The Eicar “test virus” is not actually a virus, as it contains no code that
can cause damage to your computer. However, most anti-virus products
flag this file as a virus. You can download the “test virus” from the
official website of the
EICAR
organization at
http://www.eicar.org/anti_virus_test_file.htm
.
2. Stop the real-time protection task on the client computer. Copy the
Eicar
test virus on the client computer and enable the real-time protection task
again.
3. Run the on-demand scan group task for a group of client computers. As a
result, the application should detect the eicar.com file and send a
corresponding notification. A record of this event should also appear in
the
Events
node of the console tree.
2.10. Generating reports
From the Kaspersky Administration Kit event log data stored on the
Administration Server, the application can generate reports on the current state
of the anti-virus protection system state. The preset report templates can be
accessed from the
Reports
node of the console tree.
There are 13 standard templates that correspond to the following types of
reports:
•
Anti-virus databases version report
•
Error report
•
Licensing report
•
Report of the most infected desktops
