Endpoint Protection not installed on non-Azure servers
Eli I checked the troubleshooting steps from the link you shared and everything seems to be ok in terms of connectivity. I've messaged you the existing ticket I have with MS as well. Thank you
I got somebody from Azure Security Center (ASC) working with MDATP team via the ticket and guided me to install System Center Endpoint Protection (SCEP) client. Over the call he mentioned that the MDATP engineer said that SCEP is more compatible with 2012 R2 server and had see performance issues with MDATP agent. I asked for an official document regarding this and then they sent me the link https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fprotect-eu.mimecast.com%2Fs%2FomRQCgnBLtK8prsxSF7J%3Fdomain%3Ddocs.microsoft.com&data=02%7C01%7C%7C944e9a49d2d24492c0a208d81f8ddb71%7C77062e0dc7da46b08b044c018aa88a0d%7C0%7C0%7C637294041440982295&sdata=9TBIiDyJGwMtLYvW8K0gcofwcGk7wh8ZnQ0KjqnD00g%3D&reserved=0 that MDATP is not compatible with 2012 R2.
However, I found another article which shows the support for 2012 R2 https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/configure-server-endpoints
Not sure if this is a platform support issue and some confusions within the support team
