The Security Center architecture is based on a client-server model, where all system functions are handled by a pool of server computers distributed over an IP network.

Every Security Center system must have its own pool of servers. Their number can range from a single machine for a small system to hundreds of machines for a large-scale system.
NOTE: In the diagram, the blue server icons represent the Security Center servers, which also run the Config Tool and Security Desk client applications.
