In Update, you can configure the following settings:
Basic
By default, the Update type is Regular update. This ensures the detection signature database and product modules are updated automatically from ESET update servers.
Pre-release updates include the most recent bug fixes and detection methods available to the general public soon. However, they might not be stable at all times; therefore, it is not recommended to use them in a production environment.
Delayed updates allow updating from special update servers providing new versions of virus databases with a delay of at least X hours (that is, databases tested in a real environment and considered stable).
Module rollback
If you suspect that a new detection engine update or program modules may be unstable or corrupt, you can use the ESET PROTECT task for Modules Update Rollback to roll back to the previous version and temporarily disable updates. Alternatively, you can enable previously disabled updates if you have postponed them until revoked.
ESET Endpoint Security records snapshots of the detection engine and program modules for use with the rollback feature. To create module database snapshots, keep Create snapshots of modules enabled. When Create snapshots of modules is enabled, the first snapshot is created during the first update. The next one is created after 48 hours. The Number of locally stored snapshots field defines the amount of stored detection engine snapshots.
|
When the set amount of snapshots is reached (for example, three), the oldest snapshot is replaced with a new snapshot every 48 hours. ESET Endpoint Security rolls back detection engine and program module update versions to the oldest snapshot. |
Product Updates
Product updates ensure that you are always using the latest product version. Enable the Auto-Updates toggle to have product updates installed automatically on the next restart and maintain constant access to the latest features and protection.
In the Custom Server section you can specify HTTP(S) server, local drive or removable drive to be used as the location where the updates are stored. In order for the server or drive to be accessible for ESET Endpoint Security, type in the applicable Username and Password.
