19th April 2016 - EPO Notes

19th April 2016 EPO Notes:

repository or repo:
- contain security software packages and updates to distribute to clients (simply think of repo contains latest software updates and provides to client machines)
- types:
master repo (contain latest versions and for distribution = ePO Server)
distributed repo (contain copies from master repo's data. Think of it as local mirrors )

distributed repo mini system config:
- 800MB disk space
- 256MB ram (mini)

types of distributed repo
- superagent repo (system hosting superagents as distributed repo. mcafee agent must be installed)
- ftp repo (ftp server as repo)
- http repo (http server as repo)
- unc share repo (shared folder as repo)

replication
- automatically when global updating enabled
- running schedule replicate task automatically or manually

agent handlers
- reduce load on epo server, saving bandwidth
- move agent request closer to the requester systems

mcafee agent communicate with epo server so that settings are updated, events sending, etc. The communication is known as agent-server communication

superagent - an agent acts as a middle man between epo server and other agents in the same network broadcast segment

function of superagent -
1) caching info received from epo server or distributed repo and then distributes to agents in the network subnet. using lazy caching, superagents get data from master repo only when requested, thus saving bandwidth

2) broadcast wakeups calls to other agents
