 For passive mode to work on endpoints running Windows Server 2016 and Windows Server 2012 R2, those endpoints must be onboarded with the modern, unified solution described in [Onboard Windows servers](configure-server-endpoints.md#windows-server-2012-r2-and-windows-server-2016).

 On Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server version 1803 or newer, Windows Server 2019, and Windows Server 2022, if you're using a non-Microsoft antivirus product on an endpoint that *isn't* onboarded to Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, disable/uninstall Microsoft Defender Antivirus manually to prevent problems caused by having multiple antivirus products installed on a server. However, Defender for Endpoint includes capabilities that further extend the antivirus protection that is installed on your endpoint. If you have Defender for Endpoint, you can benefit from running Microsoft Defender Antivirus alongside another antivirus solution.
 
 For example, [Endpoint detection and response (EDR) in block mode](edr-in-block-mode.md) provides added protection from malicious artifacts even if Microsoft Defender Antivirus isn't the primary antivirus product. Such capabilities require Microsoft Defender Antivirus to be installed and running in passive mode or active mode.
