Protocols for Transferring Packages Employed by IDManager

IDManager uses the following protocols to transfer packages to target computers when you deploy using the distribution server:

Windows Network Share

Uses this mechanism if the distribution server and the target computer are on Windows.

SSH/SFTP

Uses this mechanism if either the distribution server or the target machine is on Linux or Unix.

For more information about these transfer mechanisms, see Prerequisites for Automatically Deploying CA Virtual Assurance Infrastructure.
