How to Register a Station Manually
Objective:
Install a station into the TrustPort Management, if it is set to perform registrations manually.
Requirements:
- TrustPort Management server version 3.0 installed.

As manual registration is by default inactive, it is necessary to activate this.
- In the Manage pane, select the station that is the TrustPort Management server installed.
- Click the Policy tab and in the Available policy items window select the item TrustPort Management->Server->Settings->Registrations->Automatic client registration and use the << button to the move it to the Used policy items window.
- Double click on the item and in the new window change the value to No and close the window.
- Save the changes by clicking the Save button.
- On the server use the Update stations item in the Tasks pane and enforce immediately sychronization between station and server.
-
Log out by clicking
log out.
-
After logging in again, the
Register
menu item will be visible.
-
Now install stations in the same way as you normally do. Detailed information about installation methods can be found in
How to Install TrustPort Management Version 3.0
or in
How to Remotely Install the Client on a Specific Station. The procedure described in this page differs from this in that stations are not automatically registered to the
Unclassified group
group of stations, but are added to the
Registration requests
list displayed in the
Register
menu pane.
Use the check box to select which stations to register and perform registration by clicking the
Register selected stations
button. Denying the registration of stations is possible by selecting individual stations and then clicking the
Deny selected stations
button. All stations can be either selected or unselected at once by using the small buttons in the
Select
table header above the individual station check boxes.
Up to the time a station is either registered or denied, it will periodically (the standard being 5 minutes) attempt to verify its registration status. If the registration was allowed, then the station will be assigned to the
Unclassified group
of stations and will automatically inherit the group's policies. On the following verification of registration status a profile of the station is created on the server and its name is removed from the list of registration requests. The station logs in to the server and after another predetermined time interval performs its first synchronization with the server. If the registration request was denied, then the request details are transferred to the list under the
Denied registration requests
tab and from then on it won't be possible to view its status and will appear as inactive.
