Configuration Wizard

The Configuration Wizard provides you with several steps to define basic settings. These include setting up the Server Time Zone, importing Licenses, Server Update or uploading Offline Patches, Global device rights, E-mail Server settings, Main Administrator details, etc. You can change these settings at any time.

The Configuration Wizard is available only if the basic settings for the Endpoint Protector have never been configured.

As an additional security measure, a session timeout is implemented for 300 seconds (5 minutes) of inactivity. If you are not active for this amount of time, you are notified the session will expire and logged out unless you select to continue the session.

note

You can customize the session timeout and timeout counter from the System Configuration topic.
