Micetro requires an agent to handle communication with external services. The installation location of the agent depends on the service type and whether it operates on-premises or in the cloud. Agents are installed on the respective machine, the machine running Micetro Central, or any machine with the same domain as the DNS/DHCP servers.
A single agent can manage communication with multiple servers. For more information about agents and how to install them, refer to these topics:
On Windows:
On Linux:
Depending on the service type, you can install the agent on the following hosts:
- Micetro Central host
- The service host
- A different host (for MS DNS/DHCP, ISC Kea, Cisco Meraki, and Cisco IOS services)
The following table defines the agent you can use when adding a service to Micetro, based on the service type:
| Host location | Services |
|---|---|
| Existing agents, if you have already added a service of this type |
|
| Service host, i.e., the agent installed on the server |
|
| New agent, to be added when adding a new service |
|
- Disabling resource records
- Enabling resource records
- Viewing and editing record comments
- Disabling zones
To perform these actions, you need to install the DNS Agent on the server and use that connection when adding the server.
