Endpoint Protection

We shall be installing SEPM 12.1 manager in a network which does not have Active directory and DNS server.

While pushing the client it will ask for "username" "password" and "domain"

What should i put under "domain" tab?

Add the WORKGROUP name and use the local admin credentials of the machine.

Authenticate with the domain or workgroup name (Computer Host Name)

What happend if you don't provide domain Name ?

Hello,

In your case, Insert the username and Password of computer and under Domain type "Workgroup"

When installing the Symantec Endpoint Protection client via the Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager in a Workgroup environment (not on a Domain), we will require the following prerequisites:

1. Disable Simple File Sharing on all target clients.
2. Disable the Windows firewall, or enable communication on TCP ports 139 and 445 and UDP ports 137 and 138.
3. File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks is enabled.
4. The C$ and Admin$ shares on the target clients are accessible from the Manager system.
5. There is an password-protected Administrator account common to all target systems that are being simultaneously deployed to.
