## Using ScanMail with Control Manager

- Multiple ScanMail servers can share the same configurations by using Trend Micro Control Manager (TMCM).
- Control Manager 6.0 permits administrators to configure and deploy Data Loss Prevention policies (rules) directly to ScanMail servers from the Control Manager web console.
- Administrators can also use Control Manager to synchronize virus pattern file and other downloads (Control Manager contacts Trend Micro through the Internet; Control Manager then distributes the updates to the various instances of ScanMail through the Intranet).
- Unless included as part of a Control Manager domain, each instance of ScanMail on the network updates its own virus pattern file and other updates.

For more information, see the Control Manager documentation.
