Summary
The TMVS works like the Remote Install method. It detects installed anti-virus software, searches for unprotected computers on the network, and installs the CSA or SA on these computers. To check if the computers need protection, TMVS pings the ports used by the anti-virus software.
Using an account with administrator rights, you can use TMVS to install the CSA or SA on computers except in the following situations:
- The computer is running Terminal Server.
- The Security Server is installed on the same computer.
