Release History
Bitdefender for Marshal works with the following Trustwave product releases:
Bitdefender for Marshal is available in 32 bit and 64 bit versions. Both versions can be installed on the same system. Use the 64-bit installation with MailMarshal/SEG version 8.X or above and WebMarshal version 7.X.
Note: As of July 2019, product updates are generally only provided for the 64 bit version. Supported versions of MailMarshal/SEG and WebMarshal are 64 bit software.
Bitdefender for Marshal is licensed and purchased through Trustwave.
Please read this entire section, including notes, before beginning.
To install Bitdefender for Marshal, run the installer package.
Note: During installation, Bitdefender for Marshal restarts MailMarshal/SEG, ECM, and WebMarshal services in order to update files and settings. Schedule installation accordingly.
Immediately after installation, the Bitdefender for Marshal updater attempts to retrieve the latest virus scanning Engine and signature files. If you need to configure proxy settings, you should do so immediately and then start an update manually.
To configure settings and start an update, start "Bitdefender for Marshal Configuration" from the Start menu. (Installation creates shortcuts in the submenu for each installed product that supports Bitdefender for Marshal). For details of the fields in the configuration tool, see Help.
Note: The updater requires access to the following websites:
- https://agent-av-mirror.trustwave.com
- https://bitdefender.marshal.com
