Installing System Center Essentials in SBS 2003 R2 Standard Edition - Computer and Device Management Wizard

I thought about only documenting the Device Management portion because we have a scheduled task to pick up all Servers and Workstations at 3AM Daily, but because I need instant gratification I thought so would many others.

I don't actually have any other servers or desktops in the SCE Lodge right now so this would actually discover any computers but I want to follow the deployment process for installing a green field.

	Launch the System Center Essentials Console
	Click the Configure product features hyperlink
	Click Next
	Select Automatic computer discovery; Click Next >
	Select Use selected Management Server Action Account; Click Discover
	Because there are no additional Servers or Workstations in the network at this time Click Cancel

	Launch the System Center Essentials Console
	Click the Configure product features hyperlink
	Click Next
	Select Advanced discovery; Choose Networking Devices from the drop down menu; Click Next
	Enter a range of address that represent your network; Enter the Community String for your network devices; Click Discover
	When the Discovery Results are displayed click Select All; (Network Devices are not licensed so there is no reason not to manage everything UPDATE:You are limited to 50 Network Devices) Click Next
	Click Finish
