Enterprise Console Installation

RazorbackRed

I am new to Sophos and I am in search of suggestions on how to install and configure the Enterprise Console and Update Managers. I have a single Active Directory domain with three sites (each site is a physical location). My concern is this - our remote sites are connected via WAN links that are oftentimes very congested. I would like to manage and update computers at each site from a server on that site. Therefore, my question what needs to be installed where? Do I need an Enterprise Console at each site or do I need a single Enterprise Console and Update Managers at the other sites? I've read through the documentation and it never really addresses a single domain with multiple sites. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi my friend,


    You can create a point of distribution on your remote site.


    Follow this steps:


    1) Create a shared folder in remote location

    2) In permissions, put read to everyone

    3) Go to Enterprise console, right-click in your server and select "View/Edite Configurations" in Update Manager

    4) In the tab Distribution, click on Add and insert the remote address: \\remoteserver\folder

    5) Move it to the right side

    6) Select the remote folder, and click Configure

    7) Insert credentials, to write information over there and OK, OK.

    8) Go to Polices and Duplicate your Updating Police

    9) Select your Remote Address and Insert username and Password to read this folder

    10) Move this Police to the Folder, move Remote machines and e move that machines to this same folder.

    11) Protect that computers


    With this your remote computers, will use this folder, to start the instalations and to the Updates.

    Good luck.

    Best regards,
