Group Update Provider Overview The Group Update Provider was a feature request to support designating a particular client to serve as a computer that will get content updates and publish them. This is designed to provide functionality vaguely similar to configuring a legacy Symantec AntiVirus client as a secondary server. The computer that is downloading and publishing the content is referred to as the “Group Update Provider.” The computers in the client group will use the designated “Group Update Provider” as a local proxy for content updates When a client becomes the GUP
The GUP code can only get content updates from Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager. As far as the GUP is concerned, it does not know about the client it resides on. Even if the client were to be updated through alternative means such as: Intelligent Updater or Symantec Internal Liveupdate, the GUP would not be able to use those updates to proxy for other clients.
