Mcafee ePO upgrade 5.1.1 to 5.3.0 HD

Hardware requirements and recommendations Make sure that your environment conforms to these requirements and recommendations before installing McAfee ePO software. Component Requirements and recommendations Dedicated server If managing more than 250 systems, we recommend using a dedicated server. Domain controllers The server must have a trust relationship with the Domain Controller on the on mcafee epo network. For instructions, see the Microsoft product documentation. File system NT file system (NTFS) partition recommended. Free disk space 20 GB — Recommended minimum. IP address We recommend using static IP addresses for McAfee ePO servers. McAfee ePO supports both IPv4 and IPv6 networks. Memory 8 GB available RAM recommended minimum. 1 McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator 5.1.0 Software Installation Guide 7 Component Requirements and recommendations Network Interface Card (NIC) 100 MB or higher If using a server with more than one IP address, McAfee ePO software uses the first identified IP address. If you want to use more IP addresses for agent-server communication, we recommend creating more Agent Handler groups for each IP address. See Manage Agent Handlers in the McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator Product Guide or Help for details about setting up Agent Handler groups. Ports We recommend avoiding the use of port 8443 for HTTPS communication. Although port 8443 is the default port, it is also the primary port used by many web-based activities, it is a target for malicious exploitation, and system administrators are likely to disable the port in response to a security violation or outbreak. Make sure that the ports you choose are not already in use on the server system. Notify network staff of the ports you intend to use for HTTP and HTTPS communication. Installing the software on a Domain Controller is supported, but not recommended.
