Changing the settings for connecting to the virtual infrastructure in the Integration Server Web Console
- Open Integration Server Web Console and connect to the Integration Server.
- In the workspace, select the List of virtual infrastructures section.
The window that opens displays a table of virtual infrastructures to which the Integration Server connects. Each row of the table displays the following information about the virtual infrastructure:
- Infrastructure object address
This column contains the IP addresses or fully qualified domain names (FQDN) of the virtual infrastructure objects to which the Integration Server connects, and the names of the SVMs deployed on the hypervisors.
Depending on the type of virtual infrastructure, the column may display:
- IP address or the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the virtual infrastructure administration server
- IP address or the fully qualified domain name of the hypervisor
- IP address or the fully qualified domain name of the Keystone microservice
- OpenStack project and domain name.
- Infrastructure object type
The column contains the type of the virtual infrastructure object that the Integration Server will connect to.
- Status
This column contains information about the status of the Integration Server's connection to the virtual infrastructure, the state of the infrastructure objects to which the connection is made, and the state of the SVMs deployed in the infrastructure.
If the Integration Server is not connected to the virtual infrastructure object, the column displays an error message.
- VMware NSX Manager
For an infrastructure running on VMware vCenter Server with VMware NSX Manager by Kaspersky Security enabled, the column contains the IP address in IPv4 format or the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of VMware NSX Manager.
- Infrastructure object address
Using the buttons above the table, you can:
- edit the account with administrator rights that the Integration Server uses to connect to the virtual infrastructure
- edit the account with restricted permissions to perform actions in the virtual infrastructure that the Integration Server uses while Kaspersky Security is running in order to get information about SVMs available for connection and to distribute Light Agents between SVMs
- change the settings for connecting the Integration Server to VMware NSX Manager (in a virtual infrastructure based on VMware vSphere)
- confirm the authenticity of a certificate or public key fingerprint received from a virtual infrastructure if its authenticity could not be established.
How to edit the account with administrator rights
- In the List of virtual infrastructures section, select the virtual infrastructure for which you want to change the connection settings, click the Edit button located above the table, and select Administrator account settings.
- In the window that opens, specify the account settings:
- OpenStack domain
Name of the OpenStack domain that contains an account used to connect the Integration Server to the virtual infrastructure.
The OpenStack domain field is displayed if you are configuring a connection to a virtual infrastructure based on the OpenStack platform, VK Cloud platform or TIONIX Cloud Platform.
- User name
Name of the user account that the Integration Server uses to connect to the virtual infrastructure during SVM deployment, removal and reconfiguration. This account must have privileges that are sufficient for SVM deployment, removal and reconfiguration.
- Password
Password of the user account that the Integration Server uses to connect to the virtual infrastructure during SVM deployment, removal and reconfiguration.
- OpenStack domain
- Click the Save button.
How to edit the account with limited permissions
- In the List of virtual infrastructures section, select the virtual infrastructure for which you want to change the connection settings, click the Edit button located above the table, and select Settings for account with restricted permissions.
- In the window that opens, specify the account settings:
- OpenStack domain
Name of the OpenStack domain that contains an account used to connect the Integration Server to the virtual infrastructure.
The OpenStack domain field is displayed if you are configuring a connection to a virtual infrastructure based on the OpenStack platform, VK Cloud platform or TIONIX Cloud Platform.
- User name
The name of the account that the Integration Server uses to connect to the virtual infrastructure while Kaspersky Security is running in order to get information about SVMs available for connection and to distribute Light Agents between SVMs.
To connect to a virtual infrastructure based on Citrix Hypervisor, VMware vSphere, KVM, Proxmox VE, Basis, Skala-R, HUAWEI FusionSphere, Nutanix Acropolis, OpenStack, Alt Virtualization Server, Astra Linux, VK Cloud platform, or TIONIX Cloud Platform, we recommend using an account that has limited rights to perform actions in the virtual infrastructure.
To connect to a virtual infrastructure running on the Microsoft Hyper-V platform during Kaspersky Security operation, you must use the same user account that is used for SVM deployment, removal and reconfiguration.
- Password
Password of the user account that the Integration Server uses to connect to the virtual infrastructure during Kaspersky Security operation.
- OpenStack domain
- Click the Save button.
How to change VMware NSX Manager connection settings
- In the List of virtual infrastructures section, select the virtual infrastructure for which you want to change the connection settings, click the Edit button located above the table, and select VMware NSX Manager settings.
- In the window that opens, specify the account settings:
- Address
New IP address in IPv4 format or the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the VMware NSX Manager.
If your VMware NSX Manager virtual infrastructure is clustered, specify the virtual IP address of the cluster. First, you need to assign a virtual IP address and certificate to the cluster (for more information on configuring a VMware NSX Manager cluster, see the VMware documentation).
- User name
Name of the account that the Integration Server uses to connect to VMware NSX Manager. A VMware NSX Manager account that has been assigned the Enterprise Administrator role is required.
- Password
Password of the account that the Integration Server uses to connect to VMware NSX Manager.
- Address
- Click the Save button.
How to confirm a certificate or public key fingerprint
- In the List of virtual infrastructures section, select the virtual infrastructure for which you want to confirm the authenticity of a certificate or public key, and click the Confirm certificate button.
The Verify certificate or Verify public key fingerprint window opens (depending on the type of virtual infrastructure object).
By clicking on the link in this window you can view information about the received certificate or the key fingerprint.
- If the certificate complies with your organization's security policy, click the Confirm and continue button.
The received certificate or public key fingerprint will be saved on the device where the Integration Server is installed.
If you do not consider this public key is authentic, click the Cancel connection button to terminate the connection.
