This high-level outline lists each procedure that you'll perform when configuring
HEAT PatchLink DeskTop for System Center (HEAT PatchLink DeskTop).
-
Before installing, review the requirements for the HEAT PatchLink DeskTop Server, HEAT PatchLink DeskTop Console Plug-in, and the signing certificate used to publish and
deploy 3rd-party software. This review can prevent potential install
problems.
-
If your enterprise uses a proxy server between your network and the Internet, configure it to work with
HEAT PatchLink DeskTop.
Tip:
- If you don't have a proxy server, skip this step.
- Consult the user documentation for your proxy server for detailed information on proxy configuration.
- Consult Knowledge Article 26244 at the HEAT Self-Service Portal for
an up-to-date list of URLs.
-
Allow the following URLs (and ports) to communicate through your proxy:
-
cloudapi.lumension.com: 443
-
cache.lumension.com: 80
-
lumstorage.blob.core.windows.net: 443
Also, allow the following URLs (and ports) to download content from vendors relevant to your environment (only open
URLs/ports for the vendors you need).
Note: Some of these URLs may redirect communications to port 443 or other URLs.
- appIdnId.apple.com: 80
- ardownload.adobe.com: 80
- armdl.adobe.com: 80
- cache-download.real.com: 80

-
Open port 60065 to allow communication between your HEAT PatchLink DeskTop Server and any standalone
HEAT PatchLink DeskTop Console Plug-ins that you install.
-
Configure your standalone primary site/CAS environment for communication with HEAT PatchLink DeskTop.
Attention: If you're installing HEAT PatchLink DeskTop directly on your primary site server/CAS, don't complete
this step. Skip to the next step.
-
Make sure that the target WSUS server has connectivity with the primary site server/CAS.
-
Create a service account that will be used for communication between the HEAT PatchLink DeskTop and the primary
site server/CAS. This account has the following requirements:
- It must be either a domain account or an identical local account on both your WSUS Server and
the primary site server/CAS.
- It must be a member of the SMS Admin local user group on the primary site server/CAS.
- It must be a member of the WSUS Administrators local user group on the
WSUS Server.
