What is ESET SysInspector?

Solution

ESET SysInspector is a free, state-of-the-art diagnostic tool for Windows based systems. It examines your
operating system and captures details such as running processes, registry content, startup items and network
connections.

Once a snapshot of the system is created, ESET SysInspector applies heuristics to assign a risk level for each
object logged. Its intuitive graphical user interface enables the user to easily slice through the large volume of data by
using a slider to select objects of a particular color coded risk level for closer examination. ESET SysInspector is a
convenient utility for the tool box of every IT expert and first responder.

Key Features

Connection

 Remote Administrator port (requires restart!) - This is the port for the connection between
the ESET Remote Administrator Server and Agent(s). Changing this option requires restarting
the ERA Server Service for the change to take effect.
 ERA Web Console port (requires restart!) - Port for the connection between the Web
Console and the ERA Server.
 Certificate (requires restart!) - Here you can manage ERA Server certificates, click Change
certificate and select which ERA Server certificate should be used by ERA Server. For more
information, see Peer Certificates.

Updates

 Update interval - Interval on which updates will be received. You can select a regular
interval and configure the settings or you can use a CRON expression.
 Update server - Update server from which the ERA Server receives updates for security
products and ERA Components.
 Update type - Select the type of updates you want to receive. Either regular, pre-release or
delayed updates. We do not recommend that you select pre-release updates for production
systems as this is a risk.

Advanced Settings
 HTTP Proxy - You can use a proxy server to facilitate internet traffic to clients on your network.
 Wakeup - Allows your server to trigger instant replication of the selected agent.
 SMTP server - You can use an SMTP Server to receive or send different messages.
Here you can configure settings for your SMTP server.
 Syslog server - You can use ERA to send notifications and event messages to your Sy
slog server. Also, it is possible to export logs from client's ESET security product and
send them to the Syslog server.
 Repository - Location of the repository where all installation files are stored.
 NOTE: The default repository is AUTOSELECT.
 Diagnostics - You can enable or disable transmission of crash reports to ESET.
 Logging - You can set the log verbosity to determine the level of information that will be collected
and logged - from Trace (informational) to Fatal (most important critical information). The latest
ERA Server log file can be found here:
C:\ProgramData\ESET\RemoteAdministrator\Server\EraServerApplicationData\Logs or
var/log/eset/RemoteAdministrator/Server/
 Database cleanup - To prevent a database overload, you can use this option to regularly clean
logs.
