Configuring the antivirus clients

Monitoring antivirus status

4 Click Save.
5 Repeat steps 2 through 6 to enable AVpe for each desired VPN group.
If the clients on your network are unmanaged and use LiveUpdate to install
current virus definitions and engines, you must configure each client before it
can be validated using AVpe. Each client that you want to validate with AVpe
must have a supported Symantec antivirus product installed in unmanaged
mode.
When you uninstall the client software, the registry keys that are created by this
procedure are also removed.
Warning: Do not use this procedure for clients managed by a Symantec
AntiVirus server.
To configure the AV clients
1 Install or configure each client's supported Symantec antivirus product in
unmanaged mode.
2 Insert the Symantec Gateway Security 300 Series CD-ROM into the CD-ROM
drive on a client computer.
3
In the Tools folder, copy SGS300_AVpe_client_Activation.reg to the client's
desktop.
4 Double-click the file.
5 Repeat steps 2-4 for each client that you want to be validated using AVpe.
The AV Master Status and Client Status sections of the AVpe tab lets you obtain
an operational status of the primary and secondary antivirus master and clients
configured in your network.
Any changes you make to the configuration of the primary or secondary
antivirus server, once saved, are reflected in the AV Master Status field.
