Is there Documentation for Bitdefender Netgear Armor?
My firmware is updated to the new version that has the Netgear Armor added as a feature to my Orbi router. I activated that last night. I also installed Bitdefender on my two laptops.
I'm not able to find any documentation on how to operate the Netgear Armor. The marketing materials about Armor show me screens that look completely different. My screen looks like this:
It has been running on my router for exactly 26 hours now. No vulnrability scan has resulted, assuming it might be on auto pilot. I don't seem to have any levers and switches to run operations. There's really nothing that I can see that gives me any sense that it is actually doing something more than what the router has been doing before Netgear Armor was added.

Bitdefender sent me an email the other day. I'm including it below. There was an update and I'm not sure if that solved the problem I was experiencing. It does appear to be working now, however, I'm still not completely satisfied with how the service works.
