2.1.4. AVG Admin Lite
AVG Admin Lite is the name given to a simplified installation of AVG 8.5
Anti-Virus Network Edition, providing only a local update source and script AVG
installations on stations, without the benefits of AVG DataCenter and AVG Admin
Console.
2.1.5. AVG Admin Server
The AVG Admin Server stores data in a database (AVG DataCenter) and performs
the role of a mediator between the AVG DataCenter and stations. AVG Admin Server
may also work as a local update source.
The AVG DataCenter is a database that contains the entire configuration for AVG
stations, including scan and tasks settings. All stations with AVG installed, as well
as the AVG Admin Console program, communicate with the AVG DataCenter. The
communication is possible only if the Remote Control Communication Library
component is properly installed on all stations connected to the AVG Admin
Server.
AVG DataCenter supports one embedded and several standalone (commercial)
SQL database systems. You will be able to choose specific database system during
deployment process (
AVG Admin Deployment Wizard
starts after installation).
2.1.6. AVG Settings Manager
The AVG Settings Manager is a tool suitable mainly for smaller networks that
allows you to copy, edit and distribute AVG configuration. The configuration can be
saved to a portable device (USB flash drive etc.) and then applied manually to
chosen stations.
2.1.7. Server roles
There are two roles that can be deployed after installation on AVG Admin Servers.
The selection of roles is a key part of the deployment process that will take place
right after product installation. The roles are as follows:
·
DataCenter role
Allows central management of AVG stations configuration via the AVG Admin
Console, collects scan results from AVG stations, shows components states
and much more.
·
UpdateProxy role
