Sophos enterprise console setup

Hello,

We are a new organization and planning to setup SOPHOS ENTERPRISE CONSOLE in our environment in order to deploy endpoint protection solution for machines. At the moment we don't have "DOMAIN CONTROLLER" and all the machines in our organization are "WORKGROUP" Computers, as we are a new organization planning to setup AD services soon and not at the moment. Following are the requirements and questions if you could please help us:

1. How many Windows Server 2012 R2 Servers are needed for SOPHOS ENTERPRISE CONSOLE SETUP?

2. We already have SOPHOS UTM 425 in our organization. As we are installing SOPHOS ENTERPRISE CONSOLE in server. What does SOPHOS UTM will play the rule here for ENDPOINT Protection feature?

3. SOPHOS ENTERPRISE CONSOLE will be installed in server and I have downloaded its setup for Server. What is the software name I need to download in order to install it in windows WORKGROUP computers like 7,8,8.1

  • Hello fahad,

    planning to setup AD

    first of all: changing the name, domain member ship, or AD role of an SEC server is all but impossible. I'd suggest that you wait until your domain is up and running before installing the production instance of SEC (of course you can install now for testing purposes but keep in mind that you'd have to ditch it).

    How many [...] Servers

    Basically you need one (ideally dedicated, and also not a DC) server which would also host the database. Depending on your environment and the size of your organization (with the single-server setup you can manage several thousand endpoints) one or more additional SUMs might be expedient.

    UTM [and] ENDPOINT Protection

    If you manage Endpoint with SEC then the UTM doesn't play a role except for optionally Web Control (but I see that you've got this answer already on the UTM board).

    the software name

    please see Software subscriptions in Enterprise Console.
