On a system that has the NOD32 system installed with the administrator module, but does not have direct Internet access, download the current update files and place them in a special directory on the NAS system. Use the update module on the system not connected to the Internet, and download the update files from the NAS system to which they were copied.
The directory containing the update files is the new update server for the NOD32 system installed on the NAS system. Specify the path to this new update server on the Update page of the Antivirus secondary navigation bar.

Mirror).
4.3 Scheduling the Tasks
The most frequently scheduled tasks are:
• On-demand scanning and/or
• Update of the system
Each scheduled task is executed using a corresponding profile, which defines how a particular task is performed and which parameters are associated with the task. For more details on the profiles, see “Profiles in the NOD32 system.”
[4-4] User’s Guide NOD32 Antivirus System
Configuring NOD32 Antivirus System
NOD32 system comes with two pre-defined profiles:
• Default scanning profile
• Default update profile
The most important features of the Default scanning profile are the scanning targets (fixed drives) and the default scanning parameters such as: heuristics sensitivity, diagnostic methods, action applied if virus is found, etc.
The basic characteristic of the Default update profile is the definition of the Internet update server and the frequency of the update attempts (every hour).
To create a new scheduled task, to edit or delete an existing task, or to learn more details about an existing task, select Scheduler in the secondary Antivirus navigation bar.
NOTE: To schedule a new task with a new Profile you need to define the Profile properties first. For details on creation of a new Profile, see

Testing Your Antivirus Protection
It is highly recommended that you test the setup of the NOD32 for NAS antivirus system to ensure it is correct. This system consists of two basic detection modules:
• Resident antivirus monitor, sometime also referred to as the real time scanner and
• NOD32 On-demand scanner
To perform the test copy a test file onto the server. The test file is a harmless file that the antivirus system treats it as if it were a virus. Its sole purpose is to test the functionality of an antivirus system.
6.1 Performing the test
1 Run Terminal Services on the NAS system. 2 Open Internet Explorer on the NAS system. 3 Enter http://www.eicar.org/anti_virus_test_file.htm . 4 Click eicar.com. 5 Click Close.
If AMON is set correctly on your NAS system, an alert window displays. This concludes the test.
