Pre-installation, of the Agent App steps
- Check if the user has enough rights to install the Agent as a Windows service;
- The Windows Server used to install the Agent has configured DNS to resolve agent.portal.infrasos.com hostname to the following IP addresses 3.123.216.8, 3.67.230.125, 35.157.129.160; This step is important to have connection from Agent to InfraSOS Portal because data exchange between services is carried out using WebSocket connection. For more information about WebSocket uses, see this documentation (link).
- Make sure your DNS server is correctly set up for this domain, as well as for the corresponding domain controllers (DCs). Make sure DNS communication from the Windows Server the InfraSOS agent is installed on can communicate with your domain controllers.
- Please verify that the Windows Server can successfully ping either the relevant domain or any of the Domain Controllers.
- Ensure that the connectivity between this Windows Server and the Domain Controller is not blocked due to Firewall, etc.
- Please ensure that DNS (port 53) is accessible for resolving the IP addresses of domain controllers.
- To communicate with domain controllers InfraSOS agent uses LDAP protocol (389 port)
- To communicate with InfraSOS cloud service the InfraSOS agent uses https (port 443)
