Windows Agent Setup Guide

Learn how to install the GIIP agent on a Windows server or workstation to start management.

📋 Overview

The GIIP Windows agent operates based on PowerShell and performs server performance collection, log analysis, and security monitoring functions. The installation process is very simple and does not require a separate reboot.

🛠️ Prerequisites

  • Operating System: Windows Server 2012 R2 or later (Windows 10/11 supported)
  • Permissions: Administrator privileges required
  • Authentication Info: Prepare your
    CSN
    ,
    Access Key (AK)
    , and
    Secret Key (SK)
    from the [My Profile] menu on the GIIP console in advance.

🚀 Installation Steps

1. Download Agent File

Download the

giipAgent_Windows.zip
file from the [Agent Management] page on the GIIP console, or copy and run the provided PowerShell command.

2. Unzip & Path Configuration

  • Unzip the file in an easily accessible path like
    C:\giipAgent
    .
  • Note: A short path primarily in English is recommended rather than paths containing spaces or special characters.

3. Configure Authentication Info

Open the

giipAgent.cfg
file with Notepad, enter the following items, and save:

  • CSN
    : Customer Service Number
  • AK
    : Access Key
  • SK
    : Secret Key

4. Run Agent

  • Run PowerShell or Command Prompt (CMD) as an Administrator.
  • Navigate to the agent folder and run the
    giipAgent3.bat
    file.
cd C:\giipAgent
.\giipAgent3.bat

🔍 Verification

  • Console Check: Verify if the corresponding server changes to an
    Online
    status in the [Server List] on the GIIP web console.
  • Log Check: Check the
    logs
    directory within the agent folder to ensure there are no errors in the execution logs.

💡 Important Notes

  • Outbound port 443 (HTTPS) to the GIIP server address (API endpoint) must be allowed in the firewall.
