Installation overview
F-Secure Anti-Virus for Windows Servers can be installed either in stand-alone or centrally administered
mode.
In stand-alone installation, F-Secure Anti-Virus for Windows Servers is managed with the Web Console. In
centrally administered mode, it is managed centrally with F-Secure Policy Manager components: F-Secure
Policy Manager Server and F-Secure Policy Manager Console. Refer to F-Secure Policy Manager manual
for instructions on Policy Manager deployment and policy-base management.
Note: F-Secure Anti-Virus for Windows Servers can be installed on the same computer that runs F-Secure
Anti-Virus for Microsoft Exchange. You can use the same Web Console (in case of stand-alone installation)
or F-Secure Policy Manager Console (in centrally administered mode) to manage both products installed
on the same server.
Follow these steps to set up F-Secure Anti-Virus for Windows Servers:
Centralized administration mode:
1. Import the product installation package, for example, fsavsrv900-nnn.jar, to F-Secure Policy Manager.
2. Start the installation to the remote server using either the push or policy-based installation method.
Alternatively, you can export the JAR installation package to the MSI format, and then deploy the product
locally or remotely using Microsoft Installer based tools.
3. When the installation is complete, add the server to the policy domain.

Stand-alone mode:
1. Insert the installation CD or copy the installation package, for example, fsavsrv900-nnn.exe, to the
server.
2. Run the setup program and follow the instructions in the setup wizard.
3. After the installation is complete, configure the product settings.
