1.6.Quick Start Guide
This tutorial briefly explains how an administrator can setup Endpoint Security Manager - SME then install and monitor 
installations of Comodo Internet Security (CIS) on networked computers.
We recommend admins to have read the 'Best Practices' section before putting this tutorial into practice.
The guide will take you through the following processes - click on any link to go straight to that section as per your current 
requirements.
Step 1 - Install 
Step 2 - Login to the Admin Console
Step 3 - Install Agents (and optionally Comodo Internet Security) on Target Machines
Step 4 - Open the dashboard - check that target endpoints are reporting correctly
Step 5 - Create Groups of computers
Step 6 - Import security policy from an endpoint and apply to groups
Step 7 - Viewing Active Reports™
Step 1 - Install Endpoint Security Manager - SME (see Installing and Configuring the Service if you need more help with 
this)
1. Download and run the ESM setup file. A link to this file is provided in your license confirmation email. This file will 
install the central service on the machine you intend to use as the ESM server. Supported Operating Systems are Win 
XP SP3, Win Vista SP2, Win 7 and Windows Server 2003/2008.
There is a choice of two setup files. The '..._FULL.exe' file contains all additional, required software (.net Framework 4, 
SQL Server compact 4.0 and Microsoft Report Viewer 10.0). The other is a lightweight web installer that does not 
contain this additional software but will download it from the Internet if it is not detected on your server.
2. Run the setup file. Any missing software components will be automatically installed (ESM requires .NET, SQL server 
compact and Microsoft report viewer).
3. Select 'Typical' as the installation type for fastest setup experience; after installation you will need to provide a valid 
license key by clicking the License tile using the Console interface. Select 'Custom' if you wish to change install 
location or select which components are installed; you will be required to provide your license during setup.
4. At the setup finalization dialog, make sure 'Launch ESM Configuration Tool' is selected before clicking 'Finish'.
5. In the configuration tool, take note of the hostname/IP address of the server and the port settings. You will need these 
if you wish to access the console from remote machines and if you want to setup protection for laptops and other 
computers that are outside the local network (you will also need to open these ports to the Internet on your enterprise 
firewall).
6. This tool also allows you to modify Internet connection settings and specify mail server settings (required for email 
notifications).
7. Since the ESM console can be accessed via the Internet, you may desire to obtain an SSL certificate and apply it 
using the Configuration Tool or you can distribute the self-signed certificate already installed to computers that you will 
use to administer ESM.
Step 2 - Login to the Admin Console (see logging into the console if you need more help with this)
1. After setup is complete, there are two ways that you can access the admin console:
• On the server itself - open the console by clicking 'Start > All Programs > Comodo > Endpoint Security 
Manager > ESM Console'
From remote machines via Internet browser - use the following address format to access the console:
• https://<your server hostname or IP address>:57194
