Deploying clients by using Remote Push Installation
Remote Push Installation lets you control the client installation. Remote Push
Installation pushes the client software to the computers that you specify. Remote
Push Installation requires knowledge of how to search networks to locate
computers.
Remote Push Installation performs the following actions:
■ Locate computers on your network.
Remote Push Installation locates the computers that you specify or the
computers that are discovered to be unprotected.
■ Push the client software to the computers that you specify.
To push the client software, you should use a domain administrative account
if the client computer is part of an Active Directory domain. Remote Push
Installation requires elevated privileges.
See “Preparing computers for remote deployment” on page 43.
See “Configuring firewalls for remote deployment” on page 42.
■ Install the client software on the computers.
The installation automatically begins on the computers. You or the computer
users must restart the computers after installation.
You may start the client deployment from the console.
