Trend Micro Worry-Free Business Security Advanced 6.0 Installation Guide

Regularly updated clients only have to download the incremental pattern, which is
approximately 5KB to 200KB. The full pattern is approximately 20MB when
compressed and takes substantially longer to download.
Trend Micro releases new pattern files daily. However, if a particularly damaging virus is
actively circulating, Trend Micro releases a new pattern file as soon as a pattern for the
threat is available.
Using Update Agents to Reduce Network Bandwidth
If you identify sections of your network between clients and the Security Server as
“low-bandwidth” or “heavy traffic”, you can specify clients to act as update sources
(Update Agents) for other clients. This helps distribute the burden of deploying
components to all clients.
For example, if your network is segmented by location, and the network link between
segments experiences a heavy traffic load, Trend Micro recommends allowing at least
one client on each segment to act as an Update Agent.
Deciding on a Dedicated Server
When selecting a server that will host WFBS-A, consider the following:
• How much CPU load is the server carrying?
• What other functions does the server perform?
If you consider installing WFBS-A on a server that has other uses (for example,
application server), Trend Micro recommends that you install on a server that is not
running mission-critical or resource-intensive applications.
Location of the Program Files
During the Trend Micro Security Server installation, specify where to install the program
files on the clients. Either accept the default client installation path or modify it. Trend
Micro recommends that you use the default settings, unless you have a compelling
reason (such as insufficient disk space) to change them.
The default client installation path is:
C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\Security Server Agent
