Control Manager Components

Component
Description
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 TippingPoint Advanced Threat Protection for Email that allows Control Manager to manage the product. The agent receives commands from the Control Manager server, and then applies them to TippingPoint Advanced Threat Protection for 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 TippingPoint Advanced Threat Protection for Email) on the Control Manager console’s product directory tree. The product directory tree includes all managed entities.
