Configure Trend Micro Apex One to automatically update all Security Agents on a set schedule. Keeping components updated ensures that you receive the best protection against the latest threats.

Procedure

  1. Go to UpdatesAgentsAutomatic Update.
  2. Configure the schedule for a Schedule-based Update.
    • Hour(s)
      The option to Update agent configurations only once per day is available when scheduling an hourly update frequency. The configuration file contains all Security Agent settings configured using the web console.
      Tip
      Tip
      Trend Micro updates components often; however, Trend Micro Apex One configuration settings probably change less frequently. Updating the configuration files with the components requires more bandwidth and increases the time Trend Micro Apex One needs to complete the update. For this reason, Trend Micro recommends updating Security Agent configurations only once per day.
    • Daily or Weekly
      Specify the time of the update and the time period the Trend Micro Apex One server notifies agents to update components.
      Tip
      Tip
      This setting prevents all online agents from simultaneously connecting to the server at the specified start time, significantly reducing the amount of traffic directed to the server. For example, if the start time is 12pm and the time period is 2 hours, Trend Micro Apex One randomly notifies all online agents to update components from 12pm until 2pm.
  3. Click Save.
