Connecting Light Agents to SVMs

To interact with the Protection Server, the Light Agent establishes and maintains a connection to the SVM on which this Protection Server is installed. You can configure the following settings for connecting the Light Agent to the SVM:

• SVM detection method. You can select the method used by Light Agents to detect SVMs that are available for connection.
• Connection tags. If you use connection tags, Light Agent can only connect to SVMs that are configured to use that connection tag.
• Protecting the connection between the Light Agent and the Protection Server. You can use encryption to protect the connection between Light Agents and Protection Servers.
• SVM selection algorithm for connection. You can specify the algorithm to be used by the Light Agents to select SVMs to connect to.
