Deployment via GPO

I need to deploy the agent to a large number of AD domain joined machines (approximately 1700). I want to do it using a GPO, and I need the clientconfig file so the MSI route is out. Has anybody deployed the agent EXE file with clientconfig in this manner?

Check out Brad Sexton’s LinkedIn post on customizing the MSI installer. I think that may meet your needs. BigFix - Edit the BigFix Client MSI for Off Network installs or Custom Client Settings

Yes, you can refer to below post as well.

Thanks!
Is there any documentation of the installer compiler? I found the zip file but it only contains the executable.

Apart from switches, there is no written guide available; everything is self-explanatory when you execute the utility.

Furthermore, if you run BESClient setup.exe /? will offer a list of switches that it is compatible with, example /s /v/qn
