Remotely manage devices by using a secure and fast interface

1.1.1 Discovery and Deployment

The Discovery process is used to find devices in the network through querying a set of provided IP

addresses and to collect inventory information by using technologies like SNMP, WMI, and SSH.

Discovery process can also find devices from Novell eDirectoryTM or Active Directory*, and migrate

your traditional ZENworks devices from Novell eDirectory.

The Deployment process is used to distribute and install ZENworks Adaptive Agent to a collection

of devices that are identified by the discovery process or by providing a list of devices explicitly.

These devices then become managed devices.

For more information, see the ZENworks 10 Configuration Management Discovery, Deployment,

and Retirement Reference.

1.1.2 Software Management

ZENworks Configuration Management lets you configure, distribute, install, remove, and roll back

applications on your devices. This is done through the use of software bundles.

When you assign a bundle to a device, you can install and launch it on the device according to the

schedules (distribution, launch, and availability) that you define.

For more information, seethe ZENworks 10 Configuration Management Software Distribution

Reference.

1.1.3 Policy-Based Device Management

ZENworks Configuration Management lets you use policies to create a set of configurations that can

be assigned to any number of managed devices. It helps you to provide the devices with a uniform

configuration, and it eliminates the need to configure each device separately.

ZENworks Configuration Management policies help you manage the Internet Explorer favorites,

Windows Group policies, local file rights, printers, SNMP service settings, roaming profiles, and

configure dynamic local user accounts and manage them on the managed devices. You can also

configure the behavior or execution of a Remote Management session on the managed device, and

administer as well as centrally manage the behavior and features of ZENworks Explorer.
