Avira antivir webgate suite Installation Guide

 

 

 
In order to keep your AntiVir installation up-to-date you can configure two different 
modes of updates during the installation: 
 
 

Scanner update (only Scanner & Engine & VDF) 

 

Product update (Guard program files) 

 
You find the settings for the updates in the following file after the installation: 
 
/etc/cron.d/avira_updater: 
 
00 */2 * * * root /usr/lib/AntiVir/avupdate --product=Scanner 
15 12 * * Tü root /usr/lib/AntiVir/avupdate --product=Guard 
 
 

 
Depending on the target group we recommend our customers to proceed an update 
at least 2 or 3 times a day. 
 

 
Example: hourly update 
 
/etc/cron.d/avira_updater: 
 
* */1 * * * root /usr/lib/AntiVir/avupdate --product=Scanner 
 

 
Example: 3 hour interval 
 
/etc/cron.d/avira_updater: 
 
* */3 * * * root /usr/lib/AntiVir/avupdate --product=Scanner
