Connecting Network Agents to Administration Server by using the klmover utility

After you replace the Administration Server certificate by using the command-line klsetsrvcert utility, you need to establish the SSL connection between Network Agents and Administration Server because the connection is broken.

To specify the new Administration Server certificate and restore the connection:

From the command line, run the following utility:

klmover [-address <server address>] [-pn <port number>] [-ps <SSL port number>] [-nossl] [-cert <path to certificate file>]

The administrator rights are required to run the utility.

This utility is automatically copied to the Network Agent installation folder, when Network Agent is installed on a client device.

If the Use uninstallation password option is enabled in the Network Agent policy settings and the Network Agent version 15 is used, the klmover utility requires the corresponding password. You can use the klcsngtgui utility located in the Network Agent installation folder to check the Network Agent version.

The description of the klmover utility parameters is presented in the table below.
