Introduction

This document describes a list of available switches in the Cisco Secure Endpoint Installer. The Installer has built-in command line switches. You can use them with a deployment software to automate Secure Endpoint deployment.

Caution: If your network is live, ensure that you understand the potential impact of any command.

Command Line Switches

Starting in version 5.1.13 of the AMP Connector for Windows, the first argument passed needs to be ' /R ' which is just a dummy switch that is stripped off and the next argument is processed. Any command line installs, updates and uninstall need to include this argument as the first argument. See below for examples.

Silent Install Examples: v5.1.13 or newer: amp_install_package.exe /R /S

v5.1.11 or older: amp_install_package.exe /S

Uninstall Example:

v5.1.13 or newer: amp_install_package.exe /R /S /remove 1

v5.1.11 or older: amp_install_package.exe /S /remove 1

Install with Remote Deployment Tools

When used with remote deployment tools, this additional flag is used and is declared first:

v5.1.13 or newer: /R /S v5.1.11 or older: /S

Install without Specification of a Switch

If you run the command line installer and do not specify any switches, it is equivalent to these switches being enabled:

/desktopicon 0 /startmenu 1 /contextmenu 1 /skipdfc 0 /skiptetra 0

Unsupported Operating Systems (OS)

If a version of Windows Operating System is currently unsupported by FireAMP, but you want to install a Secure Endpoint for testing purposes, you can use this switch:

/skiposcheck 1

The switch is used as shown here:

AMPSetup.exe /skiposcheck 1

Uninstallation

Note: The switch for uninstallation must be run against the installation package and not uninstall.exe.

To perform a silent & complete uninstallation of connectors 5.1.11 or older, the switch would be:

FireAMPSetup.exe /S /remove 1

To perform a slient & complete uninstallation of connectors v5.1.13 or newer, the swtich would be:

FireAMPSetup.exe /R /S /remove 1

You can aslo perfrom these in non-slient modes by removing the /S switch.
