the Remote Administration component has to be installed on the station

run the installation file and select option Add or remove components
-
tick also the option AVG Remote Admin Client and finish the installation
After installation of this component, please fill in the connection string to your DataCenter / AVG Admin Server:

open AVG - menu Tools - Advanced settings
-
go to section Remote Administration
-
fill in the address of your AVG Admin Server, which is in format
[server_name_or_IP] (e.g. 192.168.100.10) -
enter the port number (4158 by default, can be changed in AVG Admin Server Monitor)
-
click OK to store the settings
The AVG on the station will now connect to the server, and will be configurable using the AVG Admin Console.{/jkefel}
