    Hi,

    Pleaes help me with below,

    All of our endpoints, desktop and windows server, are on Symantec.cloud Endpoint Protection.

    How would SEP for Linux server fit into our environment taking into consideration the fact that we require no more than 10 SEP for Linux and a Management console is require for SEP.

    Symantec.cloud Endpoint Protection linux management not available.

    You need to install SEPM 12.1.5 or Savfl

    For 10 Linux servers you have two options. 

    You need to Install New SEPM which again requires a server OS or Win7. Database, Administrative effort.

    you need to configure sepm as reverse proxyto download defs for linux

    Enabling Mac and Linux clients to download LiveUpdate content using the Apache Web server as a reverse proxy

    Or

    for 10 Linux servers you can buy 10 individual license and intall them as Unmanaged. You still need to use Liveudpate admin or internet or Intelligent updater to update linux machines.

    Hello,

    Unfortunately, SEP.cloud does not include Linux Management.

    All 10 Linux servers would require individual licenses OR install them with SAV for Linux as Unmanaged.

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting in Symantec community.

    SEP.cloud does not support linux platform at this point.

    Could you confirm which license you are entitled for?
