Advanced configuration

You can tweak the agent's config to toggle features and enhance security.

In most cases, the agent is configured and managed entirely from the ConfigX c. If you have advanced requirements, you can manually edit the config file.

Configuration file

The agent configuration file is automatically generated and populated when you first perform setup during the installation process.

The configuration file config.json is located in the agent's data directory, /etc/cfgx-agent.

📂 Config file location

/etc/cfgx-agent/config.json

All config options are hot reloaded when the file is updated. The agent will watch for any changes and apply them immediately.

Configuration options

The following options can be set in config.json:

Setting	Description
RegistrationId	🔒 Agent credential: unique ID. Issued by server during setup.
AuthToken	🔒 Agent credential: auth token. Issued by server during setup.

Options denoted with 🔒 are issued by the server, and cannot normally be changed.
