To facilitate this process, the option exists to set the client’s initial configuration settings at the time of the installation from
the same command.
The following table contains a list of PUBLIC properties for the Tenable LCE Windows Log Agent client MSI install
package. Because all parameters (except LCE server IP address and port) are set using policies on the server, there are
only a few options available.
Property
Description
ALLUSERS
1 = Installer tries to install for all users, fails if user rights are insufficient
2 = Tries all users first, then tries single user if that fails
PATH
The path that the program will be installed in. Specify the full path including the drive letter,
and include the slash at the end of the path.
Defaults to: “C:\Program Files\Tenable\LCEClient\”
SERVERIP
The IP address of the LCE server
Defaults to: “203.0.113.250”
SERVERNAME
Designates the hostname of the LCE server for the client to use.
USERIP
Tells the client to use an IP address or hostname for its connection to the LCE server. A value
of “0” will use the hostname and a value of “1” will use the IP address.
Defaults to: “1”
VERBOSE
Controls the verbosity of the LCE Windows Log Agent client’s own log. A value of “1” is the
normal higher level of verbosity and a value of “0” is the reduced level.
Defaults to: “1”
The following demonstrates an installation of the LCE Windows Log Agent client from the command line:
msiexec.exe /q /I "lce_client-4.0.1-windows_2008_x64.msi" SERVERIP="127.0.0.2"
The “/q” on the above line instructs the installer to run with no user feedback. When performing an installation from the
command line, the “/q” (or “/quiet” or “/qn”) option can be used to keep the installation program from stopping the
process to ask if previous settings should be applied. The “/i” is the operative parameter that specifies the name of the
file to be installed.
Removing the LCE Windows Client
To remove the LCE Windows Log Agent client, under Control Panel, open “Add or Remove Programs” or “Programs
and Features” depending on the version of Windows. Select “Tenable LCE Client” and then click the “Change/Remove”
button. This will open the InstallShield Wizard. Follow the directions in this wizard to completely remove the LCE client.
Windows Client Configuration
To configure the LCE Windows Log Agent client, launch the LCE Configuration tool located at “C:\Program
Files\Tenable\LCEClient\LCEConfig.exe”. Depending on options selected during installation, a shortcut icon(s) is
created on the Desktop and the “Start” menu under “Tenable Network Security” called “LCEConfig”. Once the
configuration tool is launched, a warning message is displayed as follows:
