For clients on Windows, you can use one of these deployment strategies:

Automatic (recommended) - Use Deployment rules to automatically download and
install pre-configured packages on endpoint computers. Define deployment rules
and manage deployments using SmartEndpoint. See the status of all deployments
in the Reporting tab. See "Automatic Deployment Using Deployment Rules" on
page108
l
Manual - Export component packages from the Endpoint Security Management
Server to endpoint clients using third party deployment software, a shared network
path, email or other method. You can only see the deployment status after the
package is successfully installed. See "Manual Deployment Using Packages for
Export" on page114 .
