Installing and Configuring SMS Clients

The techniques and methods that you can use to install the Advanced Client and Legacy Client are described in Chapter 4, "Understanding SMS Clients." Some methods are configured using the SMS Administrator console, and others involve initiating a program file at the client that invokes the installation. You can manually initiate a program file at the client by using logon scripts, a software distribution technique, or Windows Group Policy.

  • This section describes how to use these techniques for installing Advanced Clients and Legacy Clients. For information about planning your client deployment and which deployment technique to use, see Chapter 10, "Planning Your SMS Deployment and Configuration," and see Tables 10.6 and 10.7, which display the techniques and methods available to each client type.
