Agents
An agent is a piece of software installed and deployed automatically on the Security Gateway or on the Management Server that gathers and reports theIoT asset metadata to Quantum IoT Protect. The Agent page shows the details of the agent to know whether an agent is running or not.
To access the Agents page, go to IoT > Agents.
Filter and select the required agent view from the drop-down list in the top-right corner:
-
All Agents
-
Connected Agents (Default) - Agents that communicated with the Gateway or the Management Server in the last 15 minutes, indicated with a green banner.
-
Disconnected Agents - Agents that have not communicated with the Gateway or the Management Server for over 15 minutes.
Note - A disconnected agent may also indicate that the gateway it is installed on is offline, or the connectivity to Check Point cloud is disrupted. When an agent which should be connected, is disconnected, verify the Web Server/Reverse Proxy that agent is installed on is live and is with connectivity.
