Configure SoM Settings

What is scope of management?

Scope of Management or SoM refers to all the endpoints that can be managed by Endpoint Central. After successful installation of Endpoint Central, the scope of management must be defined. All the endpoints that are connected to an active directory or workgroup can be managed either directly in LAN or remotely. You can configure the SoM settings to ensure that the agent/ distribution server has been installed in endpoints that need to be managed by Endpoint Central.

1. In the Endpoint Central web console, navigate to the Agent tab and click SoM Settings under Settings
2. Tick the Retry Distribution server/ Agent Installation checkbox and enter the required details.
