Restricting machine updates
Some right-click menu commands are duplicated at different locations within
the anti-virus domain view. This hierarchy lets you limit the number of
machines that are affected by your actions, as shown in the following table:
Icon
Hierarchical settings save you time by reducing the number of times you have
to configure. If you want all machines within all your anti-virus domains to
use the same settings, use the right-click commands at the Anti-Virus
Domain(s) level.
You may need the settings to be different for each anti-virus domain. Use the
right-click commands at the individual domain level to do this. Similarly, if
you require a group of machines within a single domain to be different from
the others, either drag them into their own members group or change each
machine separately.
The following table contains an explanation of some frequently used
right-click menu commands:
