Important Information on Installation
Before installation
Usually you will install Avira SMC Server on a central Windows network server and
the SMC Frontend user interface on a computer in the network on which you can
manage the Avira SMC as administrator. You can also install both components on
the same computer.
The services and program components of Avira SMC require the IP addresses of the
computers and certain open ports for communication. So you must specify this
data during installation in a dialog window.
Moreover, if you intend to allow access to Agent installation files over the network,
you have to activate the option
Create SMC Agent Network Share
. See
5.5.3 Silent
Agent Setup on Windows
.
If you want the Avira Internet Update Manager to mirror SMC update files in all
available language versions (EN and DE), activate the
Multilanguage
option. Else,
it will only mirror the update files for the language your SMC uses.
If you install the SMC Frontend on a computer outside the network, you must ensure that
the Frontend ports (default: 7000 and 7001) are open in the firewall for communication
with the SMC Server and Agents.
HTTP Server Port 7080 must be open and not used by other application.
