File Deployment

Overview

File Deployment in zMan Director allows administrators to apply supported files to managed zTC devices.

This page lists OpenVPN files that have been uploaded through Repository Management. Once available in zMan Director, these files can be applied to individual zTC devices or groups of devices.

File Deployment


File Type

The File Deployment page includes a file type selector.

The documented file type for this workflow is:

  • OpenVPN

OpenVPN files are uploaded through Repository Management before they are available for deployment.


File List

The File Deployment table may display information such as:

  • Name
  • Description
  • File Name
  • Host
  • Uploaded On

This allows administrators to confirm that the correct file is available before applying it to managed devices.


Deployment Workflow

The typical file deployment workflow is:

  1. Upload the OpenVPN file under Repository Management.
  2. Open Device Settings > File Deployment.
  3. Select the appropriate file type.
  4. Confirm the file appears in the deployment list.
  5. Apply the file to the required individual device or device group.

OpenVPN File Deployment

OpenVPN configuration files are used by OpenVPN clients to connect to a VPN server.

These files may contain connection settings, certificates, and other information required to establish a secure encrypted connection between the client and the VPN server.

The supported OpenVPN file format documented for this workflow is:

  • .ovpn

Notes

  • Files must be uploaded through Repository Management before they can be used for File Deployment.
  • File Deployment is documented for OpenVPN files.
  • OpenVPN files can be applied to individual devices or groups of devices.
  • Deployment behavior may depend on device connectivity and zDM communication.
