What is difference between managed SEP Client and Unmanaged SEP Client?

Or, Difference between managed and unmanaged AV package in Symantec Endpoint Protection.
Unmanaged SEP Clients:
1. Take definition updates from Internet (Symantec’s public update distribution server).
2. It does not communicate with management server, so you will not be having it listed in your
management server console AV clients list. Due to this Administrator can’t manage this type of clients
3. End users have full access of all features of the AV agent installed for them and perform all administrative actions locally with no restrictions.

Managed SEP Clients:
1. Take definition updates from local SEPM management server.
2. It communicates with management server, so you will be having it listed in your management server console AV clients list. Due to this Administrator can manage this type of clients and apply any policy or restrictions centrally.
3. End users have limited, restricted or administrator defined access of all the features of the AV agent installed for them and can perform only allowed actions locally within administrator defined restrictions.

Cheers, please write me back if you have query of feedback on this.
