Registering to Control Manager Parent topic

Administrators can manage IM Security using the Trend Micro Control Manager management console. However, administrators must first install a Control Manager agent on the IM Security server (during IM Security installation or using the web console) and then register the agent with the Control Manager server.

Procedure

  1. Click Administration → Control Manager Settings.
    The Control Manager Settings screen displays.
  2. Under Connection Settings, type the name of the IM Security server in the Entity display name field.
  3. Under Control Manager Server Settings specify the following:
    1. Type the Control Manager server IP address or host name in the Server FQDN or IP address field.
    2. Type the port number that the MCP agent uses to communicate with Control Manager.
    3. If you have Control Manager security set to medium (HTTPS and HTTP communication is allowed between Control Manager and the MCP agent of managed products), select Connect through HTTPS.
    4. If the network requires authentication, type the user name and password for the IIS server in the Username and Password fields.
    5. If using a NAT device, select Enable two-way communication port forwarding and type the NAT device's IP address and port number in IP address and port number.
