System requirements and recommendations

Make sure that your environment conforms to all requirements and recommendations before installing ePO - On-prem software.

Run the Pre-Installation Auditor to make sure that your environment meets the minimum requirements for a successful installation. For information about downloading and using the Pre-Installation Auditor, see the tool's release notes.

Component	Requirements and recommendations
Dedicated server	If managing fewer than 250 systems, ePO - On-prem can be installed on a pre-existing server, such as a file server. If managing more than 250 systems, use a dedicated server for ePO - On-prem.
Domain controllers	(Recommended) The server must have a trust relationship with the Domain Controller on the network. For instructions, see the Microsoft product documentation. Note Installing the software on a Domain Controller is supported, but not recommended.
File system	NT file system (NTFS) partition.
Free disk space	20 GB — Minimum.
IP address	Use static IP addresses for ePO - On-prem. Static IP addresses are recommended for ePO - On-prem and Agent Handlers. ePO - On-prem supports IPv4 and IPv6 networks.
Memory	8-GB available RAM minimum.
Network Interface Card (NIC)	100 megabit minimum. Tip If using a server with more than one IP address, ePO - On-prem uses the first identified IP address. To use more IP addresses for agent-server communication, create Agent Handler groups for each IP address. For more information, see KB56281.
Ports	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 ePO - On-prem and Trellix Agent communication.
