The AVpe feature lets you monitor client AVpe configurations and, if necessary,
enforce security policies to restrict network access to only those clients who are
protected by antivirus software with the most current virus definitions.

Description
Defines the primary antivirus server in your
network. This is the server to which you want
the security gateway to connect to verify client
virus definitions.
Defines a secondary antivirus server. The
security gateway connects to this server to verify
client virus definitions if it cannot access the
primary antivirus server.
Type an interval (in minutes) for the security
gateway to query the antivirus server.
For example, if you type 10 minutes, the security
gateway queries the antivirus server every 10
minutes to obtain the latest virus definition list.
The default setting is 10 minutes. You must
enter a value greater than 0.
This button lets you override the time interval
set in the Query AV Server Every field. When
clicked, the security gateway queries the
antivirus server for the latest virus definitions.
Before you click this button, enter the primary
and secondary AV master IP addresses, and then
click Save.
When first enabling AVpe, use this button to
force the security gateway to connect to the
primary or secondary antivirus server to obtain
current virus definitions.
