Enabling and disabling application module updates

If application module update is enabled, Kaspersky Security adds updates for Light Agent for Windows, Light Agent for Linux, and Protection Server modules to the update package.

You can enable or disable application module update using the Administration Console when creating a Protection Server policy or in the Protection Server policy settings.

You can also enable or disable application module update in the Web Console when creating or modifying the Protection Server policy settings (Application Settings → Update settings).

To enable or disable application modules update in the Administration Console:

1. Open Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console.
2. In the Managed devices folder of the console tree, select the folder with the name of the administration group whose policy you want to edit.
3. In the workspace, select the Policies tab.
4. Select a Protection Server policy in the list of policies and right-click to open the Properties: <Policy name> window.
5. Select the Update settings section in the window of Protection Server policy properties.

   Update settings will appear in the right part of the window.

6. Do one of the following:
   • Select the Update application modules check box if you want application module updates to be included in the update package for Kaspersky Security.
   • Clear the Update application modules check box if you want to exclude application module updates.
7. Click the Apply button.

Updates for Light Agent for Windows and Light Agent for Linux modules are installed automatically on protected virtual machines. The SVM application module update task is used for installing application modules updates on SVMs.
