Products

• Critical System Protection
• Data Center Security Server

Issue/Introduction

Agent is changing domains, ip address, and/or host name

No changes are being made to the management server

Agent will be connecting to the same management server as before

Cause

Ip address and/or host name or domain needs to be changed on the agent

Resolution

If using CSP 5.2.9 or above, then no additional steps need to be taken. The agent will register and the new IP address and/or host name will be displayed. If using 5.2.8 or below, then the agent will register, but you may have the old ip address and/or host name listed in addition to the new one. Simply remove the old entries from within the manager at your convenience.
