Enabling or Disabling Automatic Upgrades of Ivanti Secure Access Client

After you deploy Ivanti Secure Access Client software to endpoints, software updates occur automatically. If you upgrade the Ivanti Secure Access Client configuration on your Ivanti server, updated software components are pushed to a client the next time it connects.

  • If you configure Ivanti Secure Access Client to make 802.1X based connections, a reboot might be required on Windows endpoints when Ivanti Secure Access Client is upgraded.
  • A bound endpoint receives connection set options and connections from its binding server, but it can have its Ivanti Secure Access Client software upgraded from any Ivanti server that has the automatic upgrade option enabled. During a client software upgrade the client loses connectivity temporarily.

Ivanti Secure Access Client software upgrades are enabled by default. To change the behavior of Ivanti Secure Access Client upgrades:

1.From the admin console, select Maintenance > System > Options.

2.Set or clear the Enable automatic upgrade of Ivanti Clients check box.

3.Click Save Changes.
