tmuster2k 22 Posted June 9, 2016 Posted June 9, 2016 When going to details of a computer in the ERA6 console and then "manage policies" offers no information. Should't the information from Computer Name >> Details >> Configuration >> Applied Policies offer the same information? This section shows all of the current policy applied to this system. I see you can add policies from here but what is the purpose of doing it this way as opposed to going to Admin >> Policies and creating from there? Maybe there is a logical reason and if so would like to relay that correctly to clients.
Administrators Marcos 5,741 Posted June 9, 2016 Administrators Posted June 9, 2016 There is no "Manage policies" in details of a particular computer. There's only "Configuration" and "Applied policies". If you refer to "Manage policies" in the "Computers" pane when clicking a particular group or computer, its functionality is same as if you did it via Admin -> Policies.
ESET Staff MichalJ 434 Posted June 9, 2016 ESET Staff Posted June 9, 2016 Hello, the difference between the "applied policies" and "manage policies" is as follows: "applied policies" shows you all of the policies, applied on a client, from the perspective of inheritance from all of the groups / direct assignments (that is the merged list). "manage policies" allows you to change the assignments for the particular computer / group, but only for that one client / group - you see the direct assignment and you can change them directly, however only for that partciular object.
