Advanced setup option

The runner installer wizard provides both basic and advanced installation options. The regular installation process as provided by clicking on the Install now button is designed to fit the common needs. While this option may fit for most of the users, the advanced wizard does offer multi-deployment parameters and insight into the enrollment requirements. If you are a technically-inclined user, feel free to follow these steps to learn about the advanced setup.

 

Before starting to  deploy a new runner into Raynet One, you need to add a new registration dedicated to it through the web interface. This procedure is exactly the same as in the parent chapter. Thus, you are provided with a dedicated enrollment token and backend server URL. Remember these parameters to complete the following steps.
