The version 12.1 Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager (SEPM) has the ability to deploy Symantec Endpoint Protection (SEP) clients to remote computers across the network by using the Client Deployment Wizard. When using this wizard on Windows 2008 R2, the following error is displayed: "The Client Deployment Wizard cannot browse the network. Make sure that the Computer Browser service in Windows is started and running. Then restart the Client Deployment Wizard."

Hello,

It requires the "computer browser" service to be enabled.

The Article is in reference to SEP 12.1 RU2, 12.1

Hope that helps!!

Yes, it helps. I can deploy the client successfully when enabling the computer browser service. My question is I have other environment which have not enabled computer browser service but the client is also can be deployed.

  In addition, do I only need to enable computer browser service on SEPM svr or I need to enable it on all server?

Thanks and Regards,

its on your manager server

this is helpful when you deploy the package using migration and deployment wizard.

this is the service which gets your domain and all workstations under it.

Hello,

I agree with what Rafeeq stated.

You would require "computer browser" service to be enabled on the SEPM server as from here you deploy the client packages via Client Deployment Wizard.

Hope that helps!!
