Scan Now dialog box page
Applies To: Forefront Client Security
Use this dialog box to configure and start a scan of all managed client computers or of a single managed client computer. Client Security schedules the scan as soon as possible.
If a computer cannot be contacted (for example, a laptop that is not currently connected to your network), when it reconnects to the network, the computer will receive the instruction to begin a scan. If more than one instruction to perform a scan is given, Client Security queues only one of those instructions for each unavailable computer.
For more information about scanning, see the Client Security Administrator's Guide (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=75776).
