## Configure the App-V client to receive updates from the publishing server
1. Deploy the App-V management and publishing servers, and add the required packages and connection groups. For more information about adding packages and connection groups, see [How to add or upgrade packages by using the Management Console](appv-add-or-upgrade-packages-with-the-management-console.md) and [How to create a connection group](appv-create-a-connection-group.md).
2. To open the management console click the following link, open a browser and type the following: http://MyMgmtSrv/AppvManagement/Console.html in a web browser, and import, publish, and entitle all the packages and connection groups which will be necessary for a particular set of users.
2. To open the management console, open a web browser and enter the following URL: <https://MyMgmtSrv/AppvManagement/Console.html>. Import, publish, and entitle all packages and connection groups that your users will need.
3. On the computer running the App-V client, open an elevated Windows PowerShell command prompt, and run the following command:
```PowerShell
Add-AppvPublishingServer -Name ABC -URL http://MyPubSrv/AppvPublishing
Add-AppvPublishingServer -Name ABC -URL https://MyPubSrv/AppvPublishing
```
This command will configure the specified publishing server. You should see output similar to the following:
```

# About the Connection Group File
## Connection group file overview
**Applies to**
- Windows 10, version 1607
### What is a connection group?
**In this topic:**
A connection group is an App-V feature that can group packages together to create a virtual environment where applications within that package group can interact with each other.
- [Connection group file purpose and location](#bkmk-cg-purpose-loc)
For example, let's say you want to use plug-ins with Microsoft Office. You can create one package that contains the plug-ins and another package that contains Office, then add both packages to a connection group to enable Office to use those plug-ins.

### How a connection group file works
- [Configuring the priority of packages in a connection group](#bkmk-config-pkg-priority-incg)
- [Supported virtual application connection configurations](#bkmk-va-conn-configs)
## <a href="" id="bkmk-cg-purpose-loc"></a>Connection group file purpose and location
When you apply an App-V connection group file, the packages that are enumerated in the file will be combined at runtime into a single virtual environment. Use the Microsoft Application Virtualization (App-V) connection group file to configure existing App-V connection groups.

|AppConnectionGroupId|Unique GUID identifier for this connection group. The connection group state is associated with this identifier. Specify this identifier only when you create the connection group.</br>You can create a new GUID by entering **[Guid]::NewGuid()**.|
|VersionId|Version GUID identifier for this version of the connection group.</br>When you update a connection group (for example, by adding or updating a new package), you must update the version GUID to reflect the new version.|
|DisplayName|Display name of the connection group.|
|Priority|Optional priority field for the connection group.</br>A value of **0** indicates the highest priority.</br>If a priority is required, but has not been configured, the package will fail because the correct connection group to use cannot be determined.|
