The
Updates Server
section contains parameters of the server used as the
source of updates:
•
Region
– region where the user is located. The product uses this
parameter value to select an update server with the most suitable
geographical location.
•
Updates server URL
address of the server acting as the source of
updates. It is used in combination with the following parameters:
Use
updates server URL
and
Use updates server URL only
. By default, the
list of servers used for updating of the content filtration databases is
defined in the
updcfg.xml
file included into the product package. During
update Kaspersky Anti-Spam automatically selects a server from that list.
You can employ the
Use updates server URL
option to indicate the
address defined by the
Updates server URL

preferred as the source of updates. If the
Use updates server URL only
option is used, then Kaspersky Anti-Spam will only update its content
filtration databases from the specified server; it will not attempt to use any
other addresses.
This parameter can be set to any of the following as a source of updates:
