When onboarding new computers during Tanium Client deployment, what is key to ensure?

Ensuring the correct configuration of network settings is crucial during the onboarding of new computers in Tanium Client deployment. Effective network configuration allows the Tanium Client to establish a connection to the Tanium Server, which is essential for communication between the client and server. Proper settings facilitate not only the initial deployment but also ongoing data reporting and command execution. Without the correct network configuration, the client might not be able to reach the server, leading to deployment failures or communication issues, which can hinder the overall management and monitoring capabilities that Tanium provides.

While installing required software, providing training resources, and updating hardware specifications may also have their importance in a broader deployment strategy, they are not as fundamental to the immediate connectivity and functionality of the Tanium Client as ensuring that the network settings are configured appropriately.
