Dr.Web Network Checker |
![]() ![]() |
The Dr.Web Network Checker agent is designed for distributed file scanning for threats. The component arranges connection between network hosts with installed Dr.Web for UNIX for receiving and sending files via network to perform distributed scanning. The component organizes automatic distribution of scanning tasks (by transmitting file content over the network) to all available hosts connection to which is configured. The component balances the load between the hosts caused by scanning tasks. If there are no configured connections to remote hosts, the component uses only the local Dr.Web Scanning Engine. During scanning, files can be shared either over an open channel or over a protected one, applying SSL/TLS. To use a secure HTTPS connection it is required to provide an appropriate SSL server certificate and private key for hosts that share files. If you need to generate SSL keys and certificates, you can use the openssl utility. An example of how to use the openssl utility to generate a certificate and a private key is given in the Appendix E of the Administrator Manual.
