Configuring TMCM Settings Parent topic

To use Trend Micro Control Manager (TMCM) 5.5 or above to manage IMSS, enable the Control Manager/MCP agent on the IMSS server and configure Control Manager server settings. If a proxy server is between the Control Manager server and IMSS, configure proxy settings. If a firewall is between the Control Manager server and IMSS, configure port forwarding to work with the firewall's port-forwarding functionality.
