When Apex One Security Agents are installed in Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) environment, virtual desktops are created and abandoned quickly which leaves a large number of duplicate machine name entries on the Apex One server web console. The entries will not have the same IP Address and MAC Address. This makes the total security agent count inaccurate. This Patch enables Apex One to delete duplicate machine name entries.
Procedure
To configure Apex One to delete the duplicate machine name entries:
- Install this Patch (see "Installation").
- Open the "ofcserver.ini" file in the "\PCCSRV\Private" folder on the Apex One server installation directory.
- Under the "INI_SERVER_SECTION" section, manually add the "EnableCheckClientComputerName" key and set its value to "1".
- [INI_SERVER_SECTION]
- EnableCheckClientComputerName=1
- Save the changes and close the file.
- Restart the Apex One Master Service.
- Perform a restart on the affected Apex One security agents.

- NOTES:
- Use the target Server IP if Apex One agents identify the server by IP while installing the target server.
- Use the target Server hostname if Apex One agents identify the server by hostname while installing the target server.
- Create the domain hierarchy under "#moveto_<target Server IP or hostname>:HTTP port|HTTPS port" domain or drop existing domain to "#moveto_<target Server IP or hostname>:HTTP port|HTTPS port" domain.For example,
- Apex One Server
- ----- #moveto_serverB:8080|4343
- ---------- | subdomain1 |
- --------------- | subdomain2 |
- Move the agent to the specific domain in the domain hierarchy created in step 9.For example, put agent in subdomain2 domain
- Apex One Server
- ----- #moveto_serverB:8080|4343
- ---------- | subdomain1 |
- --------------- | subdomain2 | agent
- NOTES: You may skip this step if you drop existing domain in step 9 and the agent has existed in the domain.
- The agent will be moved to the specific domain on the target server.For example,
- Apex One Server
- ----- | subdomain1 |
- ---------- | subdomain2 | agent

This hotfix updates the Apex One agent program to remove this checking mechanism so it does not trigger the "Restart Required" message on the Apex One agent console.
This hotfix provides a way to prevent Apex One from applying the settings of a new domain on automatically grouped agents. This means that when a group of agents are transferred to a new domain, the agents will retain the existing policy settings instead of following the settings of the new domain.
Procedure
To prevent Apex One from applying the settings of a new domain on automatically grouped agents:
- Install this hotfix (see "Installation").
- Open the "ofcscan.ini" file in the "\PCCSRV\" folder on the Apex One server installation directory.
- Under the "Global Setting" section, manually add the "SkipApplyNewDomainSettings" key and set its value to "1".
- [Global Setting]
- SkipApplyNewDomainSettings=1
- Save the changes and close the file.
NOTE: After applying this key, security agents that were automatically moved to new domains will not apply the settings of the new domain and will retain the existing policy settings.

This hotfix enables the Apex One server to download the list of approved mobile devices and USB storage devices from the Device Control settings in the Apex Central server and to deploy the list to Apex One security agents.
Procedure
To configure Apex One server to download and deploy the Device Control approved list of mobile devices and USB storage devices from the Apex Central server to all Apex One security agents:
- Run the Device List Tool (listDeviceInfo.exe) to retrieve the device information. The tool provides Vendor, Model, Serial ID, and Device information for each device.
- Make a Device Control approved list in CSV file format specifying the Vendor, Model, Serial ID, and Device information of mobile devices and USB storage devices.
For example:
- 05AC,12A8,35AD13C948ECD47904B2B7AD4D5E8AFBF4C70C48,Mobile Devices
- ADATA,DC1A,285252344010000C,USB Storage Devices
NOTE: The "Device" field is optional, if there is no device type listed in the CSV file, it will be treated as "USB Storage Devices".
- Copy the CSV file to the Apex Central server in the "\Trend Micro\Control Manager\WebUI\WebApp\widget\repository\widgetPool\product\OSCE\" folder and rename the CSV file as "dc_dev_exception.csv".
NOTE: Users can import the Device Control approved list from the "Policies > Policy Resources > Device Control Allowed Devices" page of the Apex Central console.
- Deploy an Apex One Security Agent policy with Device Control setting to agents from the Apex Central console. All agents will receive the approved list.
NOTE: On the Apex One server, users can check the "DC_GLOBAL_DEV_EXCEPTION" section in "dlp.ini" file under the "\PCCSRV\Private" folder.
For example:
- [DC_GLOBAL_DEV_EXCEPTION]
- DevExceptionGlobalCount=2
- DevExceptionGlobal_00000000= VendorName,Model,serialNo,1(USB Storage Devices)
- DevExceptionGlobal_00000001=VendorName,Model,serialNo,2097152(Mobile Devices)
On the Apex One security agent, users can check the "dc_in.xml" and "dc_out.xml" file under the "\Security Agent\dlplite" folder.
For example:
- <usbException exceptionDeviceType="0x00000001"(USB Storage Devices) serialNo="xxxxxxxx" model=" xxxxxxxx " vendorName="xxxxxxxx "/>
- <usbException exceptionDeviceType="0x00200000"(Mobile Devices) serialNo=" xxxxxxxx " model=" xxxxxxxx " vendorName="xxxxxxxx "/>
