Endpoint Protection

Hi Firends,

   Yesterday I have created some Groups. From these groups clients I have assigned one server system as a  GUP and assign to all new created Group so that these groups can picked definition from there.

But today morning I have checked not of any system is update with latest definition except that Gup System.

so pls help

Hello Sumit,

are those single GUP or multiple GUPs ?

Make sure you've followed steps mentioned in the following link :

Configuring the Group Update Provider (GUP) in Symantec Endpoint Protection 11.0 RU5
http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH96419

Sngle Gup because only 350 systems are in these Group

Pls clear one point that if i can assign any system as a gup then is it require to move that system in GUP group location??

If its a single GUP, it has to be listed in that group...

yes, the GUP should be part of the group where you have configured the LU policy that the system needs to be acting as GUP.b

1. Single Group Update Provider: A single Group Update Provider is a dedicated client computer that provides content for one or more groups of clients. A single Group Update Provider can be a client computer in any group. To configure a single Group Update Provider, you specify the IP address or host name of the client computer that you want to designate as the Group Update Provider.
2. Multiple Group Update Provider: Multiple Group Update Providers use a set of rules, or criteria, to elect themselves to serve groups of clients across subnets. To configure multiple Group Update Providers, you specify the criteria that client computers must meet to qualify as a Group Update Provider. If a client computer meets the criteria, the Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager adds the client to its list of Group Update Providers. Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager then makes the list available to all the clients in your network. Clients check the list and choose the Group Update Provider that is located in their subnet. You can also configure a single, dedicated Group Update Provider to distribute content to clients when the local Group Update Provider is not available.

I have assigned the GUP System to all the new Group include the GUP system Group. It's working fine but i am waiting for the n/w team revert.

Hi Sumit,

Please confirm.

1. Policy defines that client as a GUP or not .

2. The client has received the latest policy gup policy .

3. Check the presense of the folder sharedupdates inside the SEP folder.

(C:\Program Files\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection)

4. Gup Client able to telnet port no 2967 port
