Specify the internet access settings for Administration Server. You must configure internet access to use Kaspersky Security Network and to download updates of anti-virus databases for Kaspersky Security Center and managed Kaspersky applications.

Select the Use proxy server option if you want to use a proxy server when connecting to the internet. If this option is selected, the fields are available for entering settings. Specify the following settings for proxy server connection:

• Address

  Address of the proxy server used for Kaspersky Security Center connection to the internet.

• Port number

  Number of the port through which Kaspersky Security Center proxy connection will be established.

• Bypass proxy server for local addresses

  No proxy server will be used to connect to devices in the local network.

• Proxy server authentication

  If this check box is selected, in the entry fields you can specify the credentials for proxy server authentication.

  This entry field is available if the Use proxy server check box is selected.

• User name

  User account under which connection to the proxy server is established (this field is available if the Proxy server authentication check box is selected).

• Password

  Password set by the user under whose account the proxy server connection is established (this field is available if the Proxy server authentication check box is selected).

  To see the entered password, click and hold the Show button for as long as you require.

You can configure internet access later, separately from the quick start wizard.
