11.4.3 File server
Reference: Configuration options
In the case of more than one workstation on a network, your Avira product can download
an update from a file server in the intranet, which in turn obtains the update files from a
proprietary download server on the Internet. This ensures that the Avira product is up-todate
on all workstations.
Note
The Configuration heading is only enabled if under Configuration > General >
Product update the via File Server / Shared folders option has been selected.
Download

the required directories '/release/update/' are located. The following must be specified:

The button opens a window in which you can select the required download directory.
