Scheduling an automatic update for the APR signature database

For a successful automatic update, make sure the following requirements are met:
The device can obtain the IP address of the Hewlett Packard Enterprise website through static or dynamic domain name resolution.
The device can access the signature database services on the Hewlett Packard Enterprise website.
