Update distribution
If your home computers are connected through a home network, you do not need
to download and installed updates on each of them separately, since this would
consume more network bandwidth. You can use the update distribution feature,
which helps reduce traffic by retrieving updates in the following manner:
1. One of the computers on the network retrieves an application update
package from the Kaspersky Lab web servers or from another web re-
sources hosting a current set of updates. The updates retrieved are
placed in a public access folder.
2. Other computers on the network access the public access folder to re-
trieve application updates.
To enable update distribution, select the
Update distribution folder
check-
box on the
Additional
tab (see Figure 55), and in the field below, specify the
shared folder where updates retrieved will be placed. You can enter the path
manually or selected in the window that opens when you click
Browse
. If the
checkbox is selected, updates will automatically be copied to this folder when
they are retrieved.
