• Network access must be enabled on Windows XP Home and Windows 7 Home client systems.

Deploy the agent from ePolicy Orchestrator or install a custom agent installation package on

systems running Windows XP Home.

The push deployment feature can install to many systems simultaneously, but can only install a single

version of the agent at a time. To install to multiple target operating systems or multiple agent

versions, you must configure multiple deployment tasks.

When to install using Windows login scripts

In environments where the client systems log on to the network, network login scripts can be used to

install the agent on Windows systems.

Network login scripts can be used to make sure that every system logging on to your network is

running an agent. You can create a login script to call a batch file that checks if the agent is installed

on systems attempting to log on to the network. If no agent is present, the batch file installs the agent

before allowing the system to log on. Within 10 minutes of being installed, the agent calls in to the

server for updated policies and ePolicy Orchestrator tasks, and the system is added to the System

Tree.

This method is appropriate when:

• Domain names or sorting filters are assigned to the segments of your System Tree.

• You already have a managed environment and want to ensure that new systems logging on to the

network become managed as a result.

• You already have a managed environment and want to ensure that systems are running a current

version of the agent.

Deploying agent using the McAfee Smart installer

You can create a customized McAfee Smart installer by selecting the required operating system, agent

version, and Agent Handler.

Clicking the McAfee Smart installer prompts you to save or run the executable file. The managed node

users with administrator rights can run the executable file and install the agent on their system.

The executable file contains the coninfo.xml file where the ePolicy Orchestrator server details and a

unique token for the agent are saved.

The McAfee Smart installer supports IPv6 environments.

Running the executable on the client system extracts the ePolicy Orchestrator server details and the

agent unique token from the coninfo.xml file. The client system tries to connect to the ePolicy

Orchestrator server to download the configuration files. If the connection succeeds the client system

downloads and installs the agent.
