Configuring internet access for the target hosts

If your organization's infrastructure uses the proxy server to access the internet, as well as you need to connect the target hosts to the internet, you must add the IP address of each target host to the no_proxy variable in the /etc/environment file before the Kaspersky Next XDR Expert deployment. This allows you to establish a direct connection of the target hosts to the internet and correctly deploy Kaspersky Next XDR Expert.

To configure internet access for the target hosts:

1. On the target host, open the /etc/environment file by using a text editor. For example, the following command opens the file by using the GNU nano text editor:

   sudo nano /etc/environment

2. In the /etc/environment file, add the IP address of the target host to the no_proxy variable separated by a comma without a space.

   For example, the no_proxy variable can be initially specified as follows:

   no_proxy=localhost,127.0.0.1

   You can add the IP address of the target host (192.168.0.1) to the no_proxy variable:

   no_proxy=localhost,127.0.0.1,192.168.0.1

   Alternatively, you can specify the subnet that includes the target hosts (in CIDR notation):

   no_proxy=localhost,127.0.0.1,192.168.0.0/24

3. Save the /etc/environment file.

After you add the IP addresses in the /etc/environment file to each target host, you can continue preparing of the target hosts and further Kaspersky Next XDR Expert deployment.
