Deploying the Agent and Products
Once the ePolicy Orchestrator server and consoles are installed, you must deploy
certain core components and security products in order to manage your systems.
ePolicy Orchestrator agent
The agent is the distributed component of ePolicy Orchestrator that must be installed
on each system in your network that you want to manage. SuperAgents are agents that
have been enabled to distribute broadcast wakeup calls. SuperAgents can also be used
as repositories from which to distribute products and product updates.
The agent collects and sends information among the server, update repositories,
managed systems, and products. Systems cannot be managed without an installed
agent.
Due to the variety of network environments, McAfee provides several methods for you
to get the agent on to the systems you want to manage.
