ESET Management Agent Deployment

This section describes all available methods you can use to deploy ESET Management Agent on the client computers in your network. It is very important because ESET security solutions running on client computers communicate with ESET PROTECT Server exclusively through the Agent.

Add client computers to ESET PROTECT structure

Before you can start managing client computers in your network, you need to add them to ESET PROTECT. Use one of the methods below to add them:

•Active Directory synchronization

•RD Sensor

•Add new devices manually
