179 Barracuda NG Network Access Client - Administrator’s Guide

For the AV engine and for the AV patterns the settings above accept the current version and also two
versions before. Usually companies already have mechanisms to perform regular updates of their AV
engines and patterns - in the sample you can thus leave the setting

AV Engine/Pattern Action

to

Manual

.

Instead continue with the view

Policy Assignments

and assign the following attributes:

Assign the Firewall Object

unrestrictedAccess

as

Barracuda NG Network Access

Client

Assign the Welcome Message

NG Network Accesss Protection Welcome

as

Message

of the Day

. Since the local machine context of Microsoft Windows does not

allow GUI dialogs before login, the GUI components

Message of the day

and

Welcome picture

are displayed as soon as a user has logged in.

Assign the Welcome Picture

Barracuda NG Network Access Client Logo

.

For

Limited Access

assign the appropriate Rule Set and Message

For the catch-all rule which matches all clients in the LAN, no automatic client
update is required, thus the parameter

Software Update Required

is set to

No

.

Fig. 13–5 Example configuration – Configure a Access Control Service Trustzone – Local Machine: Edit Policy Rule: catch-all

Checking engine and pattern versions of Antivirus- or Antispyware products requires up-to-date information on
server-side.

Before deploying new client versions to large-scale environments, the client software will usually be tested on a limited
number of clients. Thus it is recommended to create a separate policy rule which matches only a limited number of
clients. In this policy rule enable automatic software update. After updating a smaller number of clients, one can enable
automatic software update for the rest of the company's clients.
