    What it the timeline on Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7?

    There is no time frame that I'm aware. SEPM is strictly for Windows and always has been. Haven't seen anything to indicate otherwise.

    There is no timeline for this version.

    I advice you to raise the idea so it will come in next release

    I guess a better question would be, what it the timeline for the 12.1.6 Linux agent release?

    12.1. RU6 supports RHEL 7. Beta is available now.

    The SEPM can be installed on Linux with 12.1.6?

    Need confirmation on this. There is a difference between the SEP client, which is supported, and the SEPM, which has always been Windows only.

    My question concerned the managers ability to manage a Linux agent, not to be hosted on a Linux platform.

    My fault then. I misinterpreted your question.
