1. In Agent settings, enter the name and the IP address or computer name of the Client where the Agent will be installed and will perform its tasks.

1. Activate the option Port for upload agent and Port for compare agent. You can use one or both agents, according to the necessary requirements.
2. Set the port number (s).The default ports are:
   • 64010 for the upload agent
   • 64011 for the compare agent
3. These default ports are unlocked for the agents when installing the versiondog system in the firewall. As long as the ports are not blocked by other applications, they can be used without the need for changes.
4. However, the ports can also be changed if necessary. You can change the ports using theCsc.inifile (file path: vdAgentArchiveVD$AConfiguration).
5. After you have made changes in theCsc.inifile, the agent services must be restarted.
6. From the dropdown menu, select the CSC Gateway to which the agent should be assigned.
7. Click on Save and close.
