Explaining Module Subcomponents

Ivanti Endpoint Security is a platform for modules, which are add-ons that protect your network using different methods. Each Ivanti Endpoint Security module is composed of two subcomponents: the server component and the endpoint component.

Server Component

This subcomponent is installed on the Ivanti Endpoint Security server. The server component must be installed before the endpoint component.

Endpoint Component

This subcomponent is installed on endpoints hosting a Ivanti Endpoint Security Agent. Endpoint components can be installed after the server component and agents are installed. Each installed endpoint subcomponent consumes an agent license for the applicable modules

Ideally all endpoint agents should be the same version as the Ivanti Endpoint Security server.
New releases of the server support all currently supported versions of the endpoint agent. Older agent versions, however, are constrained to the features available when the agent was released and may not support new server functionality.
