Join Martin Guidry for an in-depth discussion in this video Configuring antivirus and antispam software, part of Setting Up a Small-Office Network.
In this section, I'd like to talk about…protecting your small network from viruses and spam.…There are dozens of products on the market…that do a great job of protecting us from viruses…and certainly, every machine in your network…should run anti-virus software.…If you have a small network of just one or two machines,…it's fairly easy to manage…the virus settings one at a time.…But if you have a larger network with multiple machines,…it might be more convenient…to have some sort of centralized administration.…
One of the products I like for centralized…administration is the AVG admin console.…So although AVG virus protection is free,…the AVG admin console is not free.…There's a small cost associated with it.…But there is a 30-day free trial…if you'd like to test it out before you buy it.…You can download it from the AVG website.…After installing, the first thing you will need to do…is connect the admin console…to the individual computers in your network.…
We do this by using the very bottom option…in the left-hand window, network installer.…
