After some dificulties installing Avast BP Console, now i’m understanding how it works.
The doc lacks info about a server that already has IIS installed and being used.
In my scenario i have local and remote users with laptops. I want to publish my avast web server (www2.mycompany.com/avast - port 25322?) in order to allow them to install and activate their licenses. I don’t want to send my license file to remote users. I’m using ISA Server, so i just have to publish my internal avast web server. If it’s possible, how can I set the Avast BP to search o my specific address in order to be activated and updated.
There’s a specific protocol and port to publish?
There’s a way to see how many of my license is activated and by who? I want to control who is using my license.
The “clients” don’t have to access the web server, they only need to have the communication port open (25322) on the machine where you’ve installed the SBC server (setup_console_bp.exe).
You can control it by moving the computers that you don’t want to manage to the “Unmanaged” group. All the clients that have connected to the SBC server and are in other then “Unmanaged” group receive license from SBC server (if the license amount wasn’t exceeded yet). The active ones are in green/yellow/red color.
On BP server i can see all computers on my network, but others computers outside that i had to to insert license file manualy? How can i see how many activations are available for my license?
So if i publish my avast bp server (25322) and set my client settings to lookup the address “www.address.com” and port 25322 the remote activation may work?
