Libraries are updatable resource databases (URL filtering categories, IPS signatures, IP address lists, URLs, MIME types, morphological databases etc.) provided to UserGate customers on a subscription basis. These updates are uploaded to the UserGate repository from where they can then be downloaded to LogAn devices. If a LogAn MD is managed from Management Center, it checks automatically for available updates on the Management Center server which acts as a repository. The UserGate repository is used in this case by the UGMC server for obtaining new updates. By default, UGMC checks for and downloads library updates automatically.
When UGMC does not have access to the UserGate repository, you can import the update manually from an update file you have received in your UserGate client profile (https://my.usergate.com).
Libraries stored in the UGMC repository are available to all LogAn MDs. An MD downloads the update automatically according to its update check schedule.
A library update in the UGMC repository has the following properties:
|
