Creating a stand-alone installation package

A stand-alone installation package is an executable file that you can save on a shared resource. Then, by using SolarWinds N-central, you run the created file locally on the client's device to install Kaspersky Lab applications.

Creation of a stand-alone installation package differs depending on the Kaspersky Lab solution you use: Kaspersky Security Center or Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud. Refer to one of the following sections for instructions on creating a stand-alone installation package.

Installation package in Kaspersky Security Center

Kaspersky Security Center allows you to create stand-alone installation packages for security applications. Then, by using SolarWinds N-central, you run the created files locally on the client devices to install Kaspersky Lab applications, without involving Kaspersky Security Center.

To create a stand-alone installation package from Kaspersky Security Center:

1. Connect to Kaspersky Security Center Administration Server.
2. In the Kaspersky Security Center console tree, select Advanced → Remote installation → Installation packages.
3. In the workspace, select the installation package of the required application: Kaspersky Endpoint Security or Kaspersky Security Center Network Agent.
4. Start the process of creating a stand-alone installation package by using one of the following methods:
   • In the context menu of the installation package, select Create stand-alone installation package.
   • In the workspace of the installation package, click the Create stand-alone installation package link.

   This will start the Stand-alone Installation Package Creation Wizard. Follow the Wizard instructions.

5. At the final step of the Wizard, select the Open folder option to view the created stand-alone installation package in the folder.
6. If necessary, move the package to a shared folder that is accessible from all of the devices to which you want to deploy Kaspersky Lab security applications.
7. Proceed to the Deploying a Kaspersky Lab security application procedure.

Installation package in Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud

Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud allows you to download distribution packages of security applications. Then, by using SolarWinds N-central, you run the created files locally on the client devices to install Kaspersky Lab applications, without involving Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud.

To download a distribution package in Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud:

1. On a server or workstation, open a browser and go to Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud Management Console.
2. Select the Distribution packages section.

   The Distribution packages section contains distribution packages of security applications available for download.

3. Select a distribution package and click the Download link.

   If your company uses a proxy server, click Proxy server and define the proxy server settings (address, port, user name, and password). If you defined the proxy server settings when you connected the company to Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud at the stage of proceeding to the client company's workspace, those settings will affect the distribution package download.

   The distribution package starts downloading to the computer.

4. When the download is complete, open the folder containing the distribution package.
5. If necessary, move the package to a shared folder that is accessible from all of the devices to which you want to deploy Kaspersky Lab security applications.
6. Proceed to the Deploying a Kaspersky Lab security application procedure.
