The effectiveness of antivirus software depends entirely on the scanning engine and the 
virus definitions being up to date. For this reason, regularly download updates for 
AntiVir Server from our download servers. To carry out regular updates, the Updater 
component is integrated into AntiVir Server. The Updater component updates the 
following program components: 
– 
Virus definition file 
– 
Scanning engine 
– 
Program files (product update) 
The Scheduler facility on the AntiVir server console allows you to create update jobs that 
will be executed by AntiVir Updater at the specified intervals. Following the installation 
of AntiVir server, an update job is created that will be executed by default at the 
following interval:  60 minutes. 
With every update order, the status of the virus definition files and the scanning engine 
is checked and updated if necessary, product updates are carried out in accordance with 
the configuration. You can initiate a manual product update from the context menu of a 
server node on the AntiVir server console. A restart of the system after an update is 
required only after a product update.  
 
You can obtain updates via the following servers: 
 
– 
directly from the Internet via a web server of Avira GmbH 
– 
via a web server or file server on an intranet, which downloads the update 
files from the Internet as the master server and supplies them to other servers. 
This is useful if you want to update AntiVir Server on multiple computers on a 
network. A download server on an intranet can be used to ensure AntiVir Server 
is up-to-date on the protected servers using a minimum of resources. To set up a 
functioning download server on an intranet, you need a server which is 
compatible with the update structure of AntiVir Server.   
 
When a web server is used, the HTTP protocol is used for the download. When using a 
file server, access to the update file is provided via the network. The update is configured 
on the AntiVir Server Console. 
Note 
You can use AntiVir Internet Update Manager (file server or web server in Windows) as a 
web server or file server in the intranet. AntiVir Internet Update Manager mirrors the 
download servers of AntiVir products (including AntiVir Server) and can be obtained on 
the Internet at http://www.avira.com.
