  • The communication client installed on an endpoint periodically contacts Endpoint Manager to provide various updates about the endpoint.

  • Example data sent includes device security configuration, installed applications, CPU usage, operating system changes, patch status and so on.

  • A 'polling interval' is the length of time between each of these updates. You can change the intervals as per your preference.
