    Hello

    I dowloaded Endpoint encryption and see several versions to choose from.  Is the manager only available in the web ones (SymantecEncryptionWeb3.4.0MP1HF1Full)?  What are the PUP ones for.  Do I just burn the SymantecEncryptionServer3.4.0MP1HF1.iso and install from that and deploy and MSI to some desktops?

    Are there any issues with isntalling it on the same servers as our SEPM (MP5)?

     

    Thanks

    Mateo

    You need to extract the ISO, it contains all the contents. Ideally, you want a standalone box for this install.

    Hey Matthew230,

     

    The ISO is the correct way to go. Unfortunately, it will not install on the same box as your SEPM as this will be a standalone Linux appliance. The ISO installs the operating system as well as all the software. The installer will take you through a wizard asking questions about network configuration, hostname, etc. Once the install is completed, you'll set up the rest through the web interface on port 9000.

     

    Regarding the clients, they will be downloaded from the server's web interface after you are done with the install. You can find them under "Consumers, Policy groups". There will be a download client button toward the bottom left.

     

    Be sure to read the documentation, as it should answer any additional questions you have. Also, I'm linking you to a walkthrough of the server install. It's a little outdated, but the installation has not changed much since the walkthrough :

    One final note, 

    PUP updates are incremental updates that you can apply to existing servers. You won't be able to use them to setup a new server as you are describing.
