  1. Go to Client Configuration tab:
  • In the Customer Identifier, import the tenant credentials (exported from SSE) to ePO. 
  • In the Apply Policy From Skyhigh SSE setting, select the Download Policy from Skyhigh SSE checkbox. 
    • When you select this checkbox and push the policy to all endpoints, the endpoints will synchronize with the SSE SCP and ePO policies.
  • (Optional) In the Secure Channel for Cloud Proxies setting, select the Enable Secure Channel checkbox. 
  • (Otional) In the Traffic Redirection Settings, select the Always redirect network traffic to proxy servers checkbox.

Note: To push an updated (SSE) policy using Trellix ePO. Select the Download Policy From Skyhigh SSE checkbox and use a different policy name, which is different than the earlier SSE policy names. This pushes the policy to all endpoints, and the endpoints will synchronize with the SSE SCP and ePO policies.
