Installing

Before installing PATROL for Light Weight Protocols in a production environment, BMC recommends that you first install in a test environment on a limited number of computers and test the installation thoroughly. 

Note

By default, a typical installation configures the PATROL Agent to connect through port 3181.

The following table outlines the process required to deploy and install the KMs using the TrueSight console. For detailed information about a step, click its corresponding link.
