ABSTRACT:
A system and method for using hierarchical policy levels. In one embodiment, computers of the network are arranged into a hierarchy. A management policy server with access to the network queries the network to identify computers at or below its own level within the hierarchy. Computers under the control of the management policy server are identified, and management programs, updates or policies are automatically distributed to the computers, without manual intervention.
