    Hello,

    Yes you can upgrade from RU6 MP3 to SEP 12.1 

    https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/articles/upgrade-paths-sep-121amber

    If you don't see it on fileconnect then as llower04 said, you will have to contact license department.

    • They will check if a customer has a valid support contract.
    • If he/she does have a valid contract then they will generate the notification email and send the same to the customer’s Email address.
    • Once customer receives that, he/she just needs to go to the link mentioned in the Email and download the SEP 12.1

    License department will ask you serial number which starts with M , Keep it handy before calling.

    Customer care dept. confirmed that they are in a process of sending the Emails to all customers who has valid support contract in alphabetical order, however if one has not received then he/she needs to follow the procedure mentioned above

    In the fileconnect licensing portal, you can check if you have a Valid support subscription in effect.  If you do, you will be eligible for an upgrade.

    If you do not, you will have to contact the sales department in order to get a valid "upgrade and subscription" for the Symantec Endpoint Manager.

    Hi,

    In my site there is no details for Network access control setup..if we install symantecit will install automatically? then what is the meaning for the below files..what is the seperate files of client and manager..and others??

    Kindly help me to proceed further..

    Its to ease bandwidth usage - if you only want a client package then thats all you need to download.

    If you only want the manager and not all the tools, etc. then you can download that.

    SNAC is a seperate product, you need to version upgrade that too if you are entitled to it.

    If you didnt have SNAC With version 11, you don't have it with version 12.

    If you have SNAC today, then you should have a license key for it, which you can upgrade in the same way as SEP11.
