Smart Protection Servers are for users
who have access to their local corporate network. Local servers
localize smart protection services to the corporate network to optimize
efficiency.
There are two types of Smart Protection Servers:
-
Integrated Smart Protection Server: The
OfficeScan Setup
program includes an integrated Smart Protection Server that installs
on the same computer where the
OfficeScan server
is installed. After the installation, manage settings for this server
from the
OfficeScan web console. The
integrated server is intended for small-scale deployments of
OfficeScan, in which the number
of
clients does not
exceed 3,000. For larger deployments, the standalone Smart Protection
Server is required.
-
Standalone Smart Protection Server:
A standalone Smart Protection Server installs
on a VMware or Hyper-V server. The standalone server has a separate
management console and is not managed from the
OfficeScan web console.
