How to use Override mode
Users with ESET Endpoint products for Windows installed on their machine can use the Override feature. You can enable the Override mode only remotely from the ESET PROTECT Web Console. Override mode allows users on the client-computer level to change settings in the installed ESET product, even if there is a policy applied over these settings. Override mode can be enabled for AD users, or it can be password-protected. The function cannot be enabled for more than four hours at once.
Override mode limitations •Override mode cannot be stopped from the ESET PROTECT Web Console when it is enabled. Override is disabled only after the time of override expires, or after it is turned off on the client itself. •The user who is using the Override mode needs to have Windows administrator rights too. Otherwise, the user cannot save the changes in settings of the ESET product. •Active Directory group authentication is supported for selected managed products: oESET Endpoint Security oESET Server Security for Microsoft Windows Server (formerly ESET File Security for Microsoft Windows Server) oESET Mail Security for IBM Domino oESET Mail Security for Microsoft Exchange Server |
