70 Installing Symantec Critical System Protection on Windows
Temporarily disabling Windows agents
Use one of the following methods to disable intrusion prevention on the agent:
■ Start the management console, and set the policy for the target agent to the
Null prevention policy (sym_win_null_sbp).
■ If the policy on the computer that runs the agent is not Null and permits
policy override, use the policy override tool to disable policy prevention.
See the Symantec Critical System Protection Policy Override Guide.
■ On the agent computer, run the sisipsconfig.exe tool with the -r option, and
then restart the computer.
See “Resetting the prevention policy to the built-in Null policy” on page 68.
