Update Agents

To distribute the task of deploying components, domain settings, or client programs and hot fixes to OfficeScan clients, assign some OfficeScan clients to act as Update Agents, or update sources for other clients. This helps ensure that clients receive updates in a timely manner without directing a significant amount of network traffic to the OfficeScan server.

If the network is segmented by location and the network link between segments experiences a heavy traffic load, assign at least one Update Agent on each location.
