AVAP™ Dev Studio 2024 can be used as a development tool for enterprise
teams of all sizes. As an IT admin, you can configure AVAP™ DS 2024 to
achieve consistency and compatibility across your organization.
## Network: Common hostnames
A handful of features within AVAP™ DS 2024 require network communication
to work, such as the auto-update mechanism, querying and installing
extensions, and telemetry. For these features to work properly in a proxy
environment, you must have the product correctly configured.
Refer to the network common hostnames list for the required domains.
## Group Policy on Windows
System administrators need a way to control default software settings
across all client machines in their organization. Group Policy is a client
solution that gives administrators flexibility to implement the behavior
for each of the available policies and settings.
AVAP™ Dev Studio 2024 now has support for Windows Registry-based Group
Policy. Starting from AVAP™ DS 2024 version 1.69, each release will ship
with a `policies` directory containing ADMX template files that
can be added to the following path:{' '}
`C:\Windows\PolicyDefinitions.`
Once the policy definitions are installed, admins can use the Local Group
Policy Editor to manage the policy values.
Policies can be set both at the Computer level and the User level. If both
are set, Computer level will take precedence. When a policy value is set,
the value overrides the AVAP™ Dev Studio 2024 setting value configured at
any level (default, user, workspace, etc.).
## Additional Policies
The goal is to promote current AVAP™ Dev Studio 2024 2024 settings as
Policies and closely follow existing settings, so that the naming and
behavior are consistent. If there are requests to enact more policies,
please open an issue in the AVAP™ Dev Studio 2024 2024 GitHub repository.
The team will determine if there is already a corresponding setting for
the behavior or if a new setting should be created to control the desired
behavior.
