ESET Staff MichalJ 434 Posted April 25, 2017 ESET Staff Share Posted April 25, 2017 Hi Sanjay, no, there is no such utility available for external use. For what purpose you would like to use it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ESET Staff Gonzalo Alvarez 66 Posted April 25, 2017 ESET Staff Share Posted April 25, 2017 Hi sanjay mehta, Just curious, can you please define "standalone" system (no internet? not internal LAN connection? other?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanjay mehta 6 Posted April 25, 2017 Author Share Posted April 25, 2017 by standalone, i mean a PC not connected to eras, but has internet. we often save sets of such settings files for import into user's computers as per requirement who are outside the office, and may never connect to office eras. in v5 we could create and modify such settings files using the config editor.

ESET Staff Gonzalo Alvarez 66 Posted April 25, 2017 ESET Staff Share Posted April 25, 2017 The behavior of a laptop or computer who travels inside/outside of the company is managed by the Agent who is in charge of apply the policy's. You have to previously setup that behavior in ERA as a Policy for the PC or group. In the ERAv6 all is about Policy and Tasks, no more xml import or tool as @MichalJ mention.

ESET Staff MichalJ 434 Posted April 25, 2017 ESET Staff Share Posted April 25, 2017 We are evaluating the option, that ERA would be also able to export "configuration" not only "policy" in the proprietary ERA format. Basically, when exporting the policy, you will have an option to "export as policy" (to import into another ERA) and export as configuration. This is not yet confirmed, but it is tracked in the backlog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanjay mehta 6 Posted April 26, 2017 Author Share Posted April 26, 2017 @Gonzalo there exists an option to import & export settings on the software, which is still useful for installations without era or which don't have access to era. @MichalJ that's the way it is expected to be & should be.

As of ERA v6.5, you can export/import cfg via ecmd.exe provided that this option is enabled in the advanced setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not yet confirmed, but it is tracked in the backlog. exporting a policy as configuration may not help completely, because a single PC may have a set of different policies applied at the same time. the need is to export the sum of all policies applicable on any computer, which is the config for that PC.
