Endpoint Deployment Issues
Updated: 22 May 2010 | 1 comment
This issue has been solved. See solution.
So here is the quick and dirty... maybe not so dirty. :)
Deploying SEP11 MR4 to the school district I work for. We have 24 schools, district office, and transportation office. All the schools have at least 1 server running SQL and AD.
I was reading that using GUP wouldn't work since GUP can only handle up to 100 computers and the client still has to report back to the endpoint over the WAN. I would like to deploy a SEPM at each site to keep the communication between schools and district office down to a min. However, I just read that you shouldn't have more then 20 sites?????
Anyone have a suggestion? 15 of our sites have decent bandwidth between 20-100 mb.
Thanks ahead of time!

GUPs can support more than 100 clients.
According to our developers a GUP can handle 1000 clients or more, provided the machine has enough resources.
Also depending on the number of clients in the remote site you can just drup your check-in timer down to 1 hour or more (up to 3 in some cases) to reduce bandwidth used by client check-ins. We have a document on this, it just isnt at my fingertips right now.
Of course you will want to be in "pull mode" instead of "push mode" to reduce SEPM port usage.
I would go with a blended environment where larger sites get an additional SEPM and smaller sites just get a GUP.
Would you like to reply?
