Chapter 2. Getting Around

This chapter describes the tools that you use in getting around in the Agent.

Starting the Agent

The Agent is designed to start automatically when you turn on your device, protecting you
immediately. To configure your Agent or review logs of potential attacks on your Agent, you
open the Agent first.

You can open the Agent in two ways:

System tray icon—Double-click the icon

on the right side of the taskbar, or

right-click it and click HP Sygate Security Agent.

Start menu—Click Start|All Programs|Sygate|HP Sygate Security Agent.

Any method opens the main console, or the main screen that is the control center for the
Agent.

Option Alert:

You can only open the Agent if you have logged on using an

Administrator account. Users with a User account only see the system tray icon on the
taskbar, although the Agent is still protecting the device.

Navigating the Main Console

Once you open the Agent, you see the main console. The main console provides real-time
network traffic updates, online status, and links to logs, Help files, and access to various
rules and options.
