    Article Summary

    This article covers how to install the Edge DX Agent onto 10ZiG Linux devices.

    Important
    Before you deploy any Edge DX Agents, read the prerequisites for Agent deployment and make sure that your environment is ready.

    Edge DX supports PeakOS, and RepurpOS version 16.4.34.6 or higher.

    Before you begin

    During Agent configuration, you need to enter your Edge DX tenant name and device registration code. To get these values, open Edge DX and go to Configuration > Downloads.

    Add the ControlUp Edge DX firmware

    Third party software
    This section describes how to use 10ZiG Manager Server to install the Edge DX firmware as an example only. We can't commit to the accuracy of this documentation, and another deployment method might be more suitable for your situation.


    To add the ControlUp Edge DX firmware to a 10ZiG device:

    1. Download the Edge DX firmware from 10ZiG's Firmware Add-ons site.
    2. Add the Edge DX firmware to your image store. You can find the location of your image store in 10ZiG Manager under Image Store > Server.
    3. In 10ZiG Manager, right-click a client and select Firmware update.
    4. Click Install... and select the Edge DX firmware add-on. 
    5. Click Apply to install the Edge DX firmware add-on onto the client.

    Configure the Edge DX Agent on a 10ZiG device

    1. On a 10ZiG Linux device, click the gear icon on the taskbar and select Control Panel.ControlPanel10zig
    2. In the Control Panel, go to the Applications section and select ControlUp Edge DX.EdgeApplication10zig
    3. In the ControlUp Edge DX application configuration window, select Enable.EdgeApplicationEnable
    4. Fill out the following fields:
      • Tenant (required) - Enter the Tenant Name from the Agent downloads page in Edge DX (shown above).
      • Device Registration Code (required) - Enter the Device Registration Code from the Agent downloads page in Edge DX (shown above).
      • Proxy Address (optional) - If you want the Agent to connect to your Edge DX environment via a proxy, enter the proxy IP address here (for example. 10.0.0.1).
      • Proxy Port (optional) - If you want the Agent to connect to your Edge DX environment via a proxy, enter the proxy port here (for example, 8080).
    5. Click OK to save your changes

    After saving the configuration, the device automatically connects to your Edge DX environment.

    Deploy Agents using a template

    After configuring the ControlUp Edge DX application on a 10ZiG device as described above, you can generate a template from the device. When you apply the template to other devices, the Edge DX Agent will install on those devices.

    Update Agent versions

    When a new Edge DX Agent version is available for 10ZiG Linux devices, the ControlUp Edge DX application in the 10ZiG Control Panel will be updated.
