Database updates 7<br />

Update proxies (fail over) — List of proxy servers used for routing updated database information<br />

The proxy servers are used in fail-over mode. The first server on the list is tried first and only if the<br />

configured timeout has elapsed is the next server tried.<br />

The following table describes the list entries. For information on maintaining a list of this type, see<br />

Inline lists.<br />

Advanced Settings<br />

Settings for advanced update functions<br />

Allow to upload updates to other nodes — When selected, updated database information can be<br />

uploaded from the appliance (as a a node in a central management configuration) to other nodes<br />

The first time an update starts, it should wait an appropriate time before starting — Time (in<br />

seconds) to elapse before an update is started<br />

Note: The range of allowed values is 5 to 1200.<br />

The first time an automatic update starts, it uses the startup interval to update — Time (in<br />

seconds) to elapse between attempts to start an automatic update for the first time<br />

During an update, the coordinator subsystem, which stores updated information on the appliance, tries<br />

to connect to the appliance core, where the modules reside that use this information. A low value for<br />

this interval can therefore speed up updates because it reduces the time the coordinator might have to<br />

wait until the core is ready to receive data.<br />

Note: The range of allowed values is 5 to 600.<br />

Try to update with start interval — Maximum number of attempts (1 to 9) the appliance makes<br />

when trying to start an update<br />

Use alternative URL — URL of an update server that is used instead of the default server<br />

Verify SSL tunnel — When selected, an option to “tunnel” SSL-secured web traffic is used for updates<br />
