A remote collection job can collect files from any client on which JP1/Software Distribution Client is installed. Thus, there is a risk that unplanned or inappropriate remote collection might be performed on a client by a higher system. To prevent this from happening, you can set restrictions on remote collection when you set up a client.

By setting execution restrictions, you can block all remote collection jobs at a client, or allow only remote collection jobs from a specified higher system.

For details about how to set restrictions on executing remote collection, see 6.2.12 Remote Collect Options page in the Setup Guide.
