To load the agent with the default configuration (recommended in most cases), click Cancel or

wait until the dialog box disappears after the time-out. To configure the agent before loading

(recommended if your network does not have a DHCP server), click OK.

Prompt for configuring the agent on the target machine’s side

With the default configuration, the agent:

 Takes the network settings, such as the IP address, from the DHCP server (uses DHCP auto

configuration).

 Connects to the Acronis Snap Deploy 5 OS Deploy Server that you specified when creating

the bootable media or uploading the agent. If you did not specify a deployment server, the

agent connects to the first deployment server it finds on the network.

You can load the agent with the default configuration if there is a DHCP server and only one

Acronis Snap Deploy 5 OS Deploy Server on the network.

When configuring the agent, you can set up the following settings:

 Network settings for each network adapter of the target machine. This option enables you to

manually specify network configuration if automatic configuration is not possible (for

example, if no DHCP server is present on your network).

 The Acronis Snap Deploy 5 OS Deploy Server the agent will connect to. This option enables

you to have multiple deployment servers that perform different functions on the same

network. If you leave this field empty, the software will search for the deployment server

automatically.
