7.7 Web Interface
The web interface allows user-friendly configuration, administration and license management of ESET Security systems. This
module is a separate agent and must be explicitly enabled. To quickly configure the Web Interface, set the following options in
the ESETS configuration file and restart the ESETS daemon:
[wwwi]
agent_enabled = yes
listen_addr = address
listen_port = port
username = name
password = pass
Replace the text in italics with your own values and direct your browser to ‘https://address:port’ (note the https). Login with
‘username/password’. Basic usage instructions can be found on the help page and technical details about esets_wwwi can be
found on the esets_wwwi(1) man page.
The web interface allows you to remotely access the ESETS daemon and deploy it easily. This powerful utility makes it easy to
read and write configuration values.
