With rapid increase in globalisation, most companies have their branch offices spread across different places of the world. Managing the computers in these branch offices effectively is always a tedious job for the system administrators. With Application Control Plus in hand, managing computers in WAN across remote office will turn out to be a much easier process. To manage computers in a remote location you have to add remote offices. You can add and modify the remote offices according to your requirement. Communication across these remote offices is possible by two ways
Direct communication with Application Control Plus server
When you choose your communication type as Direct communication, all the remote office computers will get the required data from the Application Control Plus server directly. You can use this option, if you have limited computers in your remote office, say less than 10, or if you do not have any bandwidth limitation.
For managing computers in WAN you have to add a remote office. You can add the remote office directly by selecting the Remote offices tab and clicking Add Remote office.
You can also add the remote office by importing a CSV file. For adding multiple remote offices, the CSV file should contain remote office names given in separate lines.
You can also modify the remote office, by clicking the Modify icon, under the Actions column against the remote office you want to modify.
