HII am a fresher to this SMS firm . If the site contains SMS Legacy Clients or SMS 2.0 Clients, do they make communication (like Policy updates, Inventory, Status, and Discovery Data) to CAP or a MP. How the hierarchy will appear in this case.Thanking YouSreeni

This might be best answered in the SMS Newsgroups.http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sms/bb839598.aspxBut yes they talk to the CAP for the legacy clients.http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc181485.aspxclient access point (CAP) A site system that has the CAP role provides a communication point between the site server and Legacy Client computers. Computers contact CAPs to install and update SMS Legacy Client software. After SMS Legacy Client software has been installed on computers in a site, they contact a CAP for updated information from the SMS site server. Clients deliver collected files, inventory information, discovery data records, software metering data, and status information to CAPs.
