Push installation

Push means deploying remotely to one or more computers in a network. This method uses the Push Install utility to deploy the client software directly from your service provider’s website to client computers on your network. Push installation does not require third-party deployment software or interaction with users.

To perform a push installation:

„Designate an administrative computer, where you will download the Push Install utility and initiate the push.

„Select the target computers, which are client computers on your network that will receive the software.

The Push Install utility is essentially an ActiveX control that runs on an administrative computer. It installs client software on all target computers that are online when the push takes place. Use push installation to install client software on new network computers or to install additional protection services on computers with existing client software.

The Push Install utility allows you to specify one or more network computers with an Internet connection as relay servers. You must do so in a separate push operation, because you cannot push to relay servers and non-relay servers at the same time. See Enabling relay servers on page 46 for more information.
