I was at a client site today and while deploying the forefront agent remotely to an Exchange 2010 mailbox server from Forefront Protection Server Management Console (FPSMC), the job failed with the error given below.
Failed to deploy the Agent.
Could not connect to net.tcp://server fqdn:8815/DeploymentAgent. The connection attempt lasted for a time span of 00:00:21.0470097. TCP error code 10060: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond server ip:8815.
The issue was that the required ports (8815 & 8816) for installing FPE remotely was blocked by the firewall. As soon as those ports were opened on the windows firewall (on 2010 server), the agent installed successfully.
I have the same issue but its happenning when I am trying deploy agents on SharePoint/Forefront for sharepoint servers. Is it the same soulution.? Pl let advise.
No harm in trying the fix Kumar.
Hi I have the similar issue when I am trying to deploy agents on the SharePoint servers remotely from FPSMC 2010 console. Can you provide me the fix? Is the above solution will be apllicable for sharepoint servers too…
thanks
It should work for SharePoint as well. The FPSMC server can manage both Exchange and SharePoint deployments.
