INTRODUCTION
The NOD32 Antivirus system oers a wide range of
tools, which make running and managing both smaller
and larger company networks easier.
Even the multi-license NOD32 for Windows oers
the basic network services. Especially a feature called Mi-
rror, which serves to decrease trac across your Internet
LAN connection. Client workstations, with NOD32 instal-
led, will not download updates directly from the manu-
facturer (Eset company), but from a local update server,
which is located in the same LAN. Using a Mirror, you can
congure all NOD32 system settings. Thus you can recon-
gure NOD32 settings on all workstations “en bloc“.
In addition, NOD32 for Windows itself, or the control
module NOD32 Control Center, can inform the ad-
ministrator about virus or other problems on workstati-
ons via electronic mail or Windows Messenger.
NOD32 Enterprise Edition oers much more. It in-
cludes NOD32 for Windows and NOD32 Remote Adminis-
trator.
NOD32 Remote Administrator serves to ma-
nage the NOD32 antivirus system in large computer ne-
tworks. Thanks to NOD32 Remote Administrator,
you can get a global overview of the NOD32 antivirus sys-
tem activity on network workstations together with in-
formation about eventual inltration. The information
retrieved from the workstations (from the NOD32 for Win-
dows, or the NOD32 Control Center module) are
stored centrally on the server (NOD32 Remote Ad-
ministrator – RAS), and the network administrator
can access them at once using the user-friendly graphical
interface of the console (NOD32 Remote Adminis-
trator Console – RAC). The communication takes
place also in the opposite direction and administrator can
thus immediately react to newly-created situations, and
assign tasks to the NOD32 Antivirus System on the client
workstations.
Because a lot of information, which may be dicult
to remember is to follow, at the end of the manual you
can nd a summary of the most important issues.
