Control Manager server

The computer upon which the Control Manager application is installed. This server hosts the web-based Control Manager product console

Management Communication Protocol (MCP) Agent

An application installed along with ATP Email that allows Control Manager to manage the product. The agent receives commands from the Control Manager server, and then applies them to ATP Email. It also collects logs from the product, and sends them to Control Manager. The Control Manager agent does not communicate with the Control Manager server directly. Instead, it interfaces with a component called the Communicator.

Entity

A representation of a managed product (such as ATP Email) on the Control Manager console’s directory tree. The directory tree includes all managed entities.
