Trend Micro Management Communication Protocol
Policies
The Trend Micro Management Communication Protocol (MCP) is the latest part of the
communications backbone of Control Manager. MCP implements the following
policies:
• MCP Heartbeat: The MCP heartbeats to Control Manager ensure that Control
Manager displays the latest information and that the connection between the
managed product and the Control Manager server is functional.
• MCP Command Polling: When an MCP agent initiates a command poll to
Control Manager, Control Manager notifies the agent to send managed product
logs or issues a command to the managed product. Control Manager also interprets
a command poll as a passive heartbeat verifying the connection between Control
Manager and the managed product.
