You have mention that there is known issue in 12.1 ru2 mp1. Is it really effect on clients?
hello John,
It's know issue in SEP 12.1.2 MP1
this is a known issue with XP/2003 clients and the SEP firewall. See the KBA here:
Network performance slows on Windows XP with Symantec Endpoint Protection 12.1 Release Update 2 Maintenance Pack 1 installed

Exactly, my WIndows 7 clients are all OK, but not with the Win XP.
people complaining that they got system slowdown issue somehow.
Thanks Mithun Sanghavi for updates.
How important is it to update this latest Symantec updates? My Machines are working fine with SEP 12.1 RU2.
Ditto. Handy to see that I'm not the only one having the slowness problem on XP 32 bit computers. Thanks Dragonspeed for highlighting that it is SMB traffic and with network threat protection turned on. I only have a handful of computers to downgrade - commiserations to you Dragonspeed with your 300.Highlights the need to test before release? (both on symantec's part AND IT dept part!)
Whoa... glad to know that before I install it on my clients workstations.
Thanks for the report mate !
Yes please I do not know it until I browse or post in this forum.
Sure that does make sense, when can I get the download from ?
Is there any email distribution list available that I can sign up for to get notifications for new SEP releases the day they are released? I get a few symantec emails currently but usually I receive them a few months after the latest SEP client has been released. Thanks
An we still waiting for the French release of the Client-Only Patch !
Yes,If you want to upgrade sep client only
This patch only upgrades clients. If you need to upgrade your Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager to 12.1 RU2 MP1, you must download the complete update from File Connect. Once you have upgraded the manager to 12.1 RU2 MP1, you can also upgrade clients using the auto-upgrade mechanism built into the Manager Console.
what is "Symantec Endpoint Protection 12.1 RU2 MP1 Client-only patches" does that means it is upgrade patch on the SEP client side only ?
Thank you Mithun! This will definitely help me in comparing version 11 from the latest release. Will start testing this in my lab setup.
Thank you Mithun, Cheers!!!!
Good to hear that. Will try to download and install it on our test environment.
