ScienceLogic Agent API
Agents allow a Skylar Compliance appliance to manage devices located on a remote or otherwise disjointed network, not directly routable by Skylar Compliance, without the need of complex firewall changes, Network Address Translation, or VPNs. For instance, a Service Provider can set up a central Skylar Compliance appliance and deploy agents on customer networks, enabling backups of devices on remote sites. An Agent can be deployed as a Virtual or Hardware appliance on the remote network; the Agent provides faster operations by locally performing all the tasks that would typically require extensive network interaction. Configurations, logs, etc. are processed locally by the agent, and uploaded to the master Skylar Compliance appliance. **Please note:** Agents are only available with an Enterprise licence.
