IBM does not recommend running the Agent Controller behind a firewall. However, if necessary...

  1. Enable the security setting on each agent that will add load to tests, as well as workbench computer.

    To do this, run...

      C:\Program Files\IBM\SDPShared\AgentController\bin\SetConfig.bat

  2. Record the test, or run the schedule or test.

  3. During recording, you are prompted to provide a user name and password for workbench computer.

  4. During the schedule or test run, you are prompted to enter a user name and password for each agent that has security enabled, as well as workbench computer.

    You are not prompted again for user names and passwords when you rerun the test or schedule in the same workbench session.

    This secure environment has no effect on collecting test results, except for response time breakdown data, which cannot be collected when running at a secure location.
