Creating Remote Control target configuration tasks

Use the Remote Control Target wizard to create a set of target configuration parameters.

About this task

Run a task to apply the parameters to all targets or selected targets that have the Remote Control target software already installed. The configurations determine what types of session the targets can take part in and the actions that can be carried out by the controller user during a remote control session. For more information about the options, see the BigFix® Remote Control Installation Guide. To create a configuration task, complete the following steps:
Note: The configuration values set here are only in effect when a peer-to-peer session is requested with a target. If a remote control session is started from the Remote Control server, the session policies are passed to the target from the server.
In the Remote Control navigation tree, select Manage Configurations > Remote Control Target Wizard.

    Default
    Value

    Description
    Server URL ServerURL blank For the target to register with the server and take part in remote control sessions that are started from the server, provide the Remote Control server url in the format: http://servername/trc, where servername is the fully qualified name of theRemote Control server.

    For example, http://trcserver.example.com/trc.

    Note:
    • For the targets to take part only in remote control sessions that are started from the server, if you provide a server url, select never for Allow peer-to-peer mode.
    • If the Remote Control server has been installed with a custom URL which is not ending with /trc (e.g. https://my.rcserver/trccustom), you need to specify the ServerURL with the /trc at the end (e.g. https://my.rcserver/trc) so that the field is correctly validated then once that the Fixlet has been generated you need to manually edit the URL in the ActionScript. For example the line "ServerURL"="https://my.rcserver/trc" will be replaced with the line "ServerURL"="https://my.rcserver/trccustom".
    Proxy URL ProxyURL blank Host name or IP address for a proxy server, if you are using one.
    Broker List BrokerList blank The list of host names or IP addresses of the brokers and their ports, that you want the target to connect to. Enter in the following format, hostname1:port,hostname2:port,hostname3:port.
