In the KUMA web interface, an agent service is created based on the set of resources for an agent that unites connectors and destinations.
To create a set of resources for an agent in the KUMA web interface:
This opens a window for creating an agent with the Base settings tab active.
You can remove tabs by clicking .
The agent type is determined by the connector that is used in the agent. The only exception is for agents with a destination of the diode type. These agents are considered to be diode agents.
When using the tcp or udp connector type at the normalization stage, IP addresses of the assets from which the events were received will be written in the DeviceAddress event field if it is empty.
The ability to edit previously created wec or wmi connections in agents, collectors, and connectors is limited. You can change the connection type from wec to wmi and vice versa, but you cannot change the wec or wmi connection to any other connection type. At the same time, when editing other connection types, you cannot select the wec or wmi types. You can create connections without any restrictions on the types of connectors.
The connector is added to the selected connection of the agent's set of resources. The created connector is only available in this resource set and is not displayed in the web interface Resources → Connectors section.
The advanced settings for an agent destination (such as TLS mode and compression) must match the advanced destination settings for the collector that you want to link to the agent.
There can be more than one destination point. You can add them by clicking the Add destination button and can remove them by clicking the button.
The set of resources for the agent is created and displayed under Resources → Agents. Now you can create an agent service in KUMA.
