12.7.3 File server
In the case of more than one workstation in a network, Avira AntiVir Professional can
download an update from a file server in the intranet, which in turn obtains the update
files from a proprietary download server on the Internet. It can thus be ensured that the
Avira AntiVir Professional is up to date on all workstations.
Note
The configuration section is only enabled if the option Via file server / shared folders
has been selected under Configuration :: General :: Product update
Download
Enter the name of the file server on which the AntiVir Professional update files and the
required directories '/release/update/' are located. The following must be specified: file://
<IP address of the file server>/release/update/. The 'release' directory must be a
directory that can be accessed by all users.
The button opens a window in which you can select the required download directory.
