Creating Anti-virus Domains
The Management Console lets you group machines into anti-virus domains.
Each anti-virus domain contains a Management Server and one or more
member machines.
The Management Console can create any number of anti-virus domains, but
each machine must reside in only one anti-virus domain. You can use this
grouping to match the physical layout of machines within your organization
or departments, and thus simplify their management.
The machines that you put into anti-virus domains will have their software
automatically updated. So, before running the Management Console, you
must log on to the network with an account that has Domain Administrator’s
access rights.
For details about working with a complex network, see
Chapter 7,
“Configuring Complex Domains.”
Preparing member machines
To enable the Management Console to manage your machines easily, you
must install a Management Agent on each machine. Next, you must create
trust relationships between all domains and the administrator’s domain, in
order to bypass having to enter a username and password for each machine
you attempt to access.
Determining initial setup of machines
For the Management Edition software to fully control machines in the
domains, you must install a Management Agent on each machine. All
software updates can then be performed remotely from the Management
Console.
The method for installing the Management Agent depends on the
configuration of the machine (as shown in the following table):

Windows NT

Windows 95 and
