Using master repository keys in multi-server environments
Use these tasks to ensure agents version 3.6 or later can use content originating from any ePO
server in your environment.
The server signs all unsigned content that is checked in to the repository with the master
repository private key. Agents use the master repository public key to validate content retrieved
from repositories in your organization or McAfee source sites.
The master repository key pair is unique for each installation. If you use multiple servers, each
uses a different key. If your agents may download content that originates from different master
repositories, you must ensure that agents (version 4.0 or later) recognize the content as valid.
You can ensure this in two ways:
• Use the same master repository key pair for all servers and agents.
• Ensure agents are configured to recognize any repository public key used in your environment.
Tasks
Using one master repository key pair for all servers
