Greetings,
We are in the process of testing Agents and the Cloud sync and had a couple questions regarding patch downloads.
1. When using Agentless scanning and patching, patches are pushed from the Console. However when reviewing the Agent policy, I noticed there isn't an option to push patches from the console - only Vendor Over Internet and Distribution Server. Is this by design?
2. And if I select Vendor over Internet, does this literally query Microsoft, Adobe, Java etc and download the patches straight from the source, bypassing the Console and Distro points?
3. When "use vendor as backup source" is selected, will this recognize an Agent with the Cloud feature in the policy enabled and use the vendor in the case it is not connected to our MPLS?
Thanks,
AC
