This functionality of DeviceLock Enterprise Server allows you to automatically distribute DeviceLock security policies to client computers on the network. If such policies are configured, client computers will always initiate connections to DeviceLock Enterprise Server and request a policy from it, thus eliminating the need to check whether the client computers are running or not. This greatly simplifies and optimizes security policy management, especially in a non-Active Directory environment or as an alternative to Group Policy.

DeviceLock Enterprise Server also provides the Policy Log to help you troubleshoot issues with execution of DeviceLock policies. This log records events generated during the runtime of a policy.

Configuration of a policy is based on a certain file that determines DeviceLock Service settings (.dls file). You can create a .dls file by using the DeviceLock Management Console when connected to a single endpoint. A better option is to use the DeviceLock Service Settings Editor console for that purpose.
