Updating using Kaspersky Update Utility

To conserve Internet traffic, you can configure updates of databases and application modules on computers of the organization's LAN from a shared directory by using the Kaspersky Update Utility. For this purpose, one of the computers on the organization's LAN must receive update packages from the Kaspersky Security Center Administration Server or from Kaspersky update servers and then copy the received update packages to the shared directory by using the utility. Other computers on the organization's LAN will be able to receive the update package from this shared directory.

Configuring database and application module updates from a shared directory consists of the following steps:

1. Install the Kaspersky Update Utility on one of the computers of the organization's LAN.
2. Configure copying of the update package to the shared directory in the Kaspersky Update Utility settings.
3. Configure database and application module updates from the specified shared directory to the remaining computers on the organization's LAN.

You can download the Kaspersky Update Utility distribution package from the Kaspersky Technical Support website. After installing the utility, select the update source (for example, the Administration Server repository) and the shared directory to which the Kaspersky Update Utility will copy update packages. For detailed information about using Kaspersky Update Utility, refer to Kaspersky Knowledge Base.

To configure updates from a shared directory:

1. In the main window of Web Console, select Devices → Tasks.

   The list of tasks opens.

2. Click the Update task for Kaspersky Endpoint Security.

   The task properties window opens.

   The Update task is created automatically by the Initial Configuration Wizard of Kaspersky Security Center Web Console. To create the Update task, install the Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10.1.4 for Linux ARM64 Edition web plug-in while running the Wizard.

3. Select the Application settings tab → Database update source.
4. Select the Other sources on the local network or the global network option.
5. In the list of update sources, click the Add button.
6. In the Update source field, specify the path to the shared directory.

   The source address must match the address indicated in the Kaspersky Update Utility settings.

7. Click OK.
8. Configure the priorities of update sources by using the Move up and Move down buttons.
9. Click the Save button.
