F-Secure Endpoint Proxy, also refered to as Policy Manager Proxy (PMP), is provided by F-Secure in order to minimize the bandwith usage while downloading updates to your Computer Protection clients. This proxy caches GUTS2 updates, meaning the malware signature database. If the proxy would not be available, the Computer Protection clients will automatically fall back to accessing GUTS2 directly.
This document provides the details on how to configure PMP and use it in a Computer Protection profile. It's a 2 step process as described below.
