Managed systems vs. unmanaged systems Knowing how McAfee Policy Auditor classifies systems on your network is important for setting up and using the product, and for using its features. McAfee Policy Auditor uses two system classifications: Managed systems and unmanaged systems. • Managed systems - Systems in the System Tree that have both the McAfee Agent and the McAfee Policy Auditor Agent plug-in installed. • Unmanaged systems - Systems in the System Tree that do not have the McAfee Policy Auditor agent plug-in installed. These classifications, and their characteristics and requirements, apply exclusively to McAfee Policy Auditor functionality. Other McAfee products might use the same classifications, but with different characteristics or requirements. 14 McAfee Policy Auditor 6.0 software Product Guide for ePolicy Orchestrator 4.6
