2.1.4. AVG Admin Lite

AVG Admin Lite is the name given to a simplified installation of AVG Internet Security

Business Edition, providing only a local update source and script AVG installations on

stations, without the benefits of AVG DataCenter and AVG Admin Console.

2.1.5. AVG Admin Server

The AVG Admin Server stores data in a database (AVG DataCenter) and performs the

role of a mediator between the AVG DataCenter and stations. AVG Admin Server may

also work as a local update source.

The AVG DataCenter is a database that contains the entire configuration for AVG

stations, including scan and tasks settings. All stations with AVG installed, as well as

the AVG Admin Console program, communicate with the AVG DataCenter. The

communication is possible only if the Remote Administration component is properly

installed on all stations connected to the AVG Admin Server.

AVG DataCenter supports one embedded and several standalone (commercial) SQL

database systems. You will be able to choose specific database system during

deployment process (AVG Admin Deployment Wizard starts after installation).

2.1.6. Server roles

There are two roles that can be deployed after installation on AVG Admin Servers. The

selection of roles is a key part of the deployment process that will take place right

· DataCenter role

Allows central management of AVG stations configuration via the AVG Admin

Console, collects scan results from AVG stations, shows components states and

much more.

· UpdateProxy role

Serves as a proxy server for downloading and distributing updates to your

stations.

different servers/stations. There is no need to install everything on one machine.

Once you finish product installation, you will proceed to the deployment process that
