Installing a Windows agent
Logs File
Directory
C:\Program Files\Symantec
\Critical System Protection
\Agent
The installation directory prefix for the
subdirectory.
The installation creates an scsplog folder under the folder that
you specify.
Agent Name
Host name of agent
computer
The agent name.
After installation, you can change the agent name using the
management console.
Polling Interval
300 seconds
The interval that the agent uses to poll the management server
for policy and configuration updates.
Enable Intrusion
Prevention
Enabled
Indicates whether to enable intrusion prevention.
When enabled, the prevention features of Symantec Critical
System Protection are enabled for the agent. The IPS drivers are
loaded on the agent computer, and the agent accepts prevention
policies from the management console.
If you disable intrusion prevention and want to enable it in the
future, you must run the sisipsconfig.exe tool in the
\Agent\IPS\bin directory with the -i option, and restart the
computer. The -i option toggles the intrusion prevention service
on and off.
Symantec strongly recommends that you enable intrusion
prevention.
Enable Real-time
Notification
Enabled
Indicates whether to enable real-time notification.
In addition to using the polling interval, agents can use real-time
notification to obtain configuration changes. With real-time
notification, the management server sends a real-time
notification message to an agent as configuration changes occur.
Upon receiving the notification, the agent queries the
management server for the changes.
When real-time notification is disabled, the management server
does not send any messages to the agent and relies on the polling
interval to update the agent.
Notification port 2222
The port that is used to receive real-time notifications from the
management server.
You can change this port after installation by using the
management console to change the agent properties.
