inside sylink CM is push
inside sylink CM is push
CommunicationMode="PUSH"
but in SEPM Communication settings its Pull mode, now which settings has priority.
sylink has the first prirorty or SEPM settings has the first priority ???
The moment you install it
The moment you install it will get installed with all settings which is present in sylink file. Then it will contact SEPM and will check for the policy setting in server if any change is there it will make those changes in client.

will it make changes in sylink file or some other file...I have seen sylink is not getting updated after pushing policy
It will make the changes in
It will make the changes in the sylink file...
.....Edit....
Compare both these sylink files.
In SEPM every group has its own sylink and Group ID
Program Files\Symantec:\Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager\data\outbox\agent\0F4C825779F74C7000A2E19EBC385AA7 --(the first 4 digit represent the group id)
symantec endpoint protection\sylink.xml --on the clent.
One more thing to do Open the SEP Clients-- Help and Support -Troubleshooting -check the policy serial number ( 4 digits)
Then check if you have a folder in the above location on sepm server starting with that number..
........
You can check the policy serial number in client and server... If both are same then it has taken the proper settings form the server...
