What is the difference between an agent-initiated connection and a server-initiated connection in PCM v3.0?
When deploying a new agent in the network, there are two ways to establish the initial communication between the server and the agent. The PCM server does not automatically connect to remote Agents installed on other PCs, so you must either configure the remote Agent to initiate connection with the PCM server or configure the PCM server to initiate connection with the remote Agent. In remote locations with firewalls, it may be easier to establish connection if the remote Agent initiates connection.
