how to allow the "sophos" update server from the corporate firewall?

just incase the UNC will fail, clients will still  be able to update directly to sophos servers. TIA

  • HI,

    You have a couple of options:

    1. Host a web CID yourself using a webserver.  So in effect you would set the primary in the updating policy to be \\<server>\.... and the secondary location to be http://yourweb/ which is resolvable and accessible over the internet.

    2. Use Sophos as the secondary location.  So you would configure the primary to be:
     \\<server>\... and the secondary to be Sophos.

    Using your own webserver to host the secondary location is really if you want to control the version the clients download more closely (fixed packages).
