About LiveUpdate Policies

Two types of LiveUpdate Policies exist. One type is called a LiveUpdate Settings Policy and applies to Symantec Endpoint Protection and Symantec Network Access Control clients. The other type is called a LiveUpdate Content Policy and applies to Symantec Endpoint Protection clients only. The LiveUpdate Settings Policy specifies the computers that clients contact to check for updates, and controls how often clients check for updates. If required, you can apply this policy to specific locations in a group.

See Configuring a LiveUpdate Settings policy .

The LiveUpdate Content Policy specifies the update types that clients are permitted to check for and install. For each type, you can specify that clients check for and install the latest update. Or, you can specify a version of an update that clients install if they do not run that version. You cannot apply this policy to specific locations in a group. You can apply this policy only at the group level.

See Configuring a LiveUpdate Content Policy.
