ACTIVATION

If all whitelisting is in place, the product license activation and updates will commence automatically upon being detected by the shore servers.

If connectivity between the ESET Management Agent on the client machine and the ESET shore server is blocked, the activation could fail. Our server won't be able to control or activate the machine if the communication is blocked since it won't be able to locate it in ESET.
The standard port for this connection is 2222.

IMPORTANT:

Please also ensure that the Trusted Network configuration has been reviewed and configured accordingly for the newly-installed vessel.

SHORE STATUS

All machines installed with Dualog ESET Endpoint Security would be displayed on the Dualog Portal, where both monitoring and configurations can be performed.
