Windows Agent

To install the ACSC agent on Windows, make sure you first set up the host in the ACSC management UI, and have downloaded its per-host configuration files. Then download the agent installer. After you have downloaded the installer .msi file, copy it to the host and run it.

Install

As the Administrator user for the Windows host, place the acsc.conf and acsc-setup.conf files in host’s C:\Program Files\Anti-Cloud\Secure Connect\agent\cnf\ directory:

> mkdir "C:\Program Files\Anti-Cloud\Secure Connect\agent\cnf\"
> move acsc.conf "C:\Program Files\Anti-Cloud\Secure Connect\agent\cnf\."
> move acsc-setup.conf "C:\Program Files\Anti-Cloud\Secure Connect\agent\cnf\."

Then run the installer:

> acsc-x64-latest.msi

Or alternatively, run the following command to install without prompts or a UI:

> msiexec /i acsc-x64-latest.msi /qn

Once the agent is installed, it will automatically start running as a service.

Next Steps

  1. Check the host’s main page in the app. The Agent panel should show the results of the agent’s latest ping.
  2. If the Agent panel simply reads Set Up Agent, or if the Interfaces panel doesn’t list the WireGuard interfaces you already have running on the host, check the Agent Troubleshooting page.

Upgrade

To upgrade the agent, download the latest version of the installer, and run it as the Administrator user on the host:

> acsc-x64-latest.msi

Or alternatively, run the following command to upgrade without prompts or a UI:

> msiexec /i acsc-x64-latest.msi /qn

This will stop the existing agent service, uninstall it, install the new version, and start the new version running as a service.

Uninstall

As the Administrator user for the Windows host, run the following command:

> msiexec /x {2CDA8ED9-6914-4235-B481-1FE43ADDB479}

This will stop the agent service and uninstall it.
