How to Monitor IGEL Endpoints Using eG Enterprise?

This involves the following broad steps:

  1. Install an eG agent on a remote Windows/Linux host in the environment;
  2. Register the IGEL Endpoints with the IGEL UMS.

  3. Install and start an Endpoint Agent on every IGEL Endpoint you want to monitor;
  4. From the IGEL UMS Console, configure every Endpoint Agent with the details of the eG manager/remote agent it should talk to;
  5. If required, change the TCP port at which the remote agent listens; by default, the remote agent listens on port number 60010
  6. Manage the IGEL Endpoints component using the eG administrative interface;
  7. View the real-time state and metrics of the managed IGEL Endpoints component in the eG monitoring console

To know how to install an eG agent on a Windows/Linux host, refer to the eG Installation Guide. Each of the other steps outlined above (i.e., steps 2-6) has been elaborately discussed in the following topics :
