What URLs to allow in web content filtering system

[zackliu 2]

Hello,

 

We have a web content filtering system that require a user to authenticate before they can access internet.

 

We have installed ESET Remote Administrator 6, agents, and Endpoint Security 6.

 

I want to know what ESET's URLs to whitelist (so that no user authentication is needed to download updates, activation task and new software releases from ESET)

 

Is hxxp://*.eset.com sufficient for virus definition update, activation, and software releases? 

 

 

Please advise,

 

Zack

Please refer to the following KB article for a list of addresses that ESET products connect to: hxxp://kb.eset.com/esetkb/index?page=content&id=SOLN332.

Thanks Marcos,

 

Just another question, Is it possible to have our internal web servers host MSI installers for Endpoint products and use that URL (like hxxp://ourinternalservers.local/ees_nt32_enu.msi) to perform Software Installation task?

 

If possible, then whitelisting is not needed since I setup an Apache Proxy that can do activation and virus definition updates.....

Turns out that it is possible to put the MSI installers in our internal web servers for product installation task.
