Session protection for Web Console

Block requests from different IP addresses:

Enable: if you want to limit the range of IP addresses that can access your Web Console.

Disable:

oDisable permanently - this will allow users to access your Web Console from unfiltered range of IP addresses.

oDisable for - select a time period for how long the IP address access limitation will be disabled.

Static Groups

Automatically pair found computers - If Enabled, this setting enables automatic pairing of found computers with computers already present in static groups based on the hostname reported by the ESET Management Agent.

If the pairing fails, the computer will be placed in the Lost&Found group.

If the Agent does not reliably report the hostname, we recommend disabling automatic pairing.
