A probe will need to be installed on a Windows server at each physical location. The probe gives you the following abilities within the location's network:
●Facilitate discovery of IP-based devices including workstations, servers, switches, printers, etc...
●Push software agents out to Windows workstations and servers as well as OS X workstations
●Monitor devices that cannot have an agent installed (network devices, printers, etc...)
●Assist in some forms of remote control
●Cache patch data to the UNC path of your choice
●Collect log data from devices

Probes are generally best put on Domain Controllers or File Servers that have decent resources. NAS servers generally do not have good enough resources to host the primary probe, but could be used as a secondary probe for more advanced setups. Exchange, SQL, and Web Servers are generally avoided as choices to avoid performance issues with their primary services.

Discovery Jobs usually take 30-120 minutes to complete depending on the number of devices being discovered. During this time, devices will import as they are discovered. Discovery Jobs can use a decent amount of resources on the probe device, so it is suggested to do these scans only once a day when devices should typically be online.

Enables caching on the designated machine so that devices will try to get AVD updates from this internal update server before trying an external BitDefender server. If the designated machine does not have a probe, a probe will need to be installed but the probe can be configured to do nothing but manage the AVD caching.

AV Defender downloads a significant amount of data over the Internet in the form of signature updates. To avoid bandwidth issues, it is strongly recommended that you install an update server at each site where AV Defender will be deployed. The update server will download the signature definitions and act as a single point of contact for all devices on the network.

Only Windows Servers or devices where a probe is installed, and that do not have Panda-based Endpoint Security installed can be designated as an update server.

System Requirements: 7GB of space on the C: drive, and minimum of 500MB of memory available. It is also strongly recommended that your Update Server not be a device that requires uninterrupted disk access such as an Exchange or Web Server.

Note: This activity on some systems (depending on the hardware) can be resource intensive. Schedule with consideration.

Note: Make sure to schedule the installation window with a suitable amount of time after a detection and any pre-download windows to give them a chance to complete first.

Note: It is highly suggested to put the Patch Cache onto a volume that is not backed up. Cache can be stored on a non-probe device by entering a shared network drive such as \\NAS1\N-able PatchCache

We recommend that Critical Updates be manually approved weekly if not Automatically
