Background

Scan packages enable you to create scans for detecting information about a client device. You use scan results in policy filters, allowing you to grant access to resources based on those results. For more information about Endpoint Analysis and scanning client devices for policy enforcement, see CTX106888 – Advanced Access Control Administrator's Guide.

To Update a Scan Package

To distinguish between two packages of the same name, compare the scan package version number displayed in the details pane of the management console on the right.

Follow these steps to update a scan package:

1. Download the updated scan package and save it in a directory accessible to the server running Advanced Access Control.
2. In the Advanced Access Control management console tree, expand the Endpoint Analysis node and select the scan package you are updating. Scan packages are by default organized under scan groups such as “Browser Scans.” You may need to expand one of these groups to find the scan package you are updating.
3. Click Uninstall scan package from Common Tasks.
4. Select the scan group in which you want to place the updated package and click Import scan package from Common Tasks.
0. you want to locate previous versions of scan packages or revert to an earlier version installed with the product, you can find the scan packages in the following default directory of the Advanced Access Control server:
