## Introduction  
An advanced deployment strategy for Log Exporter integrates using the AutoUpdatable package, replacing the traditional maintrain delivery system. This approach shifts from version-based to component-level updates, enabling more granular and agile update mechanisms.

AutoUpdater continuously monitors the Download Center for available updates and upon detecting a new package, automated download process is initiated.

This package does not change Log Exporter configuration in SmartConsole. More information you can find in the [Log Exporter Administration Guide](https://sc1.checkpoint.com/documents/Log_Exporter/EN/Default.htm).

The Log Exporter package is installed automatically on all relevant Check Point devices when Automatic Update downloads are enabled (see [sk175504](https://support.checkpoint.com/results/sk/sk175504), section 2-B).

If Automatic Updates are disabled, you must first manually install the latest [AutoUpdater](https://support.checkpoint.com/results/sk/sk165653) and then install the Log Exporter package manually using the steps below.

## Manual Installation (Offline)

### Instructions:

1. Download the offline package to your computer. See the "Availability" section.
2. Copy the offline package from your computer to your Management Server / Log Server to some directory (for example, _/var/log/_).
3. Connect to the command line on your Management Server / Log Server.
4. Log in to the Expert mode.
5. Go to the directory with the offline package.
   
   For example: `cd /var/log/`
6. Install the offline package:
   
   `autoupdatercli install Check_Point_LOGEXPORTER_AUTOUPDATE_Bundle_T<Number>_AutoUpdate.tar`

**Note** - The installation does not require "`cpstop ; cpstart`" or a reboot. After it is installed, no further action is required - the update will be applied immediately.
