Many features and modules are optionally enabled and configured. The 1E Client can also be extended to support additional features and client modules.
1E Client does not include modules for 1E NightWatchman Agent and PXE Everywhere, which are available as separate agents. However, NightWatchman Management Center optionally integrates with Tachyon to provide online status of its clients.
On Windows devices, the 1E Client is installed as a Windows service, with a small footprint, with some client modules having their own service if enabled. On non-Windows devices, the 1E Client is installed as a background daemon, also referred to as a service on macOS.
1E Client versions
The picture below shows the evolution of the 1E Client from a combination of other 1E Agents.
Non-Windows platforms only support Tachyon features.
Deployment
The 1E Client Deployment Assistant (CDA) can be used with Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager to deploy 1E Client to Windows computers, and also 1E NightWatchman Agent.
1E Client may be deployed independently using alternative software distribution methods.
