H06. How do I keep signatures of AV+IDP service updated?

We recommend you configuring your device to automatically update the signature on an hourly basis so
that the device will check with our Update Server to see if there is new signature available. However, you
could still change the update interval as you wish and could force manual update at any given time.
H07. How often does ZyXEL release signatures of AV+IDP security service?
ZyXEL is managing to release the AV+IDP signature packs at least 5 times a week on a regular basis.
Those signatures are fully tested and the quality is assured.
Once new virus is spreading, ZyXEL will release the virus signature as fast as it can. Minimizing the
impact of new virus is always the first priority for our AV+IDP service subscribers.

No, VPN traffic will not be inspected by be scanned by Anti-Virus, IDP and Anti-Spam module.
However, we manage to support this feature in the forthcoming ZyNOS firmware.
