Introduction

For clients with a physical network appliance deployed in their infrastructure, endpoint installers are stored directly on the appliance. They’re still available through the MDR Portal’s Downloads page, but these appliance-hosted endpoint agents allow access to them without logging into the MDR Portal - and they also don’t have the license file associated to them.

This is particularly useful if using an RRM or MDM tool to deploy endpoint agents. These appliance-hosted agent installers are updated automatically, so if you leverage these appliance-hosted locations (shown below) in your deployment tool, the installers are automatically updated as we release new versions of the endpoint agent. This approach to automated deployments will result in much smoother upgrades, as it removes the need to replace out of date endpoint installers in your RMM or MDM tool.

Partners: ensure that the Organization Selector is set to the appropriate client, as they are unique to each client.

Leveraging Appliance-hosted Endpoint Agents for automated installs

The procedure for this approach will vary from organization to organization, and from deployment tool to deployment tool.

This section provides the paths to each agent installer on the appliance, which you can add to your deployment tool.

When leveraging this deployment approach, you will initially need to provide your license.txt file when setting up automated installations in your deployment tool. You can access your license.txt file by downloading an installer from The Downloads page. The license.txt file will be included with the download package:

Appliance hosted installer locations

The installers can be downloaded from your appliance from the following location.  Ensure you replace <appliance-ip> with the actual IP of your appliance.

https://<appliance-ip>/downloads/installers/

A local example:

https://192.168.0.10/downloads/installers/

Here is a list of the available installers located on your appliance:

• https://<appliance-ip>/downloads/installers/covalence-endpoint-x64.msi
• https://<appliance-ip>/downloads/installers/covalence-endpoint-arm64.deb
• https://<appliance-ip>/downloads/installers/covalence-endpoint-amd64.deb
• https://<appliance-ip>/downloads/installers/covalence-endpoint-i386.deb
• https://<appliance-ip>/downloads/installers/covalence-endpoint-i386.msi
• https://<appliance-ip>/downloads/installers/covalence-endpoint-i686.rpm
• https://<appliance-ip>/downloads/installers/covalence-endpoint.pkg
