Finding Probe Access Key

Votes:

0

Dear Support Team,
Hello,
I have edited my PRTG architecture (Core and Probes layout) several times, and therefore i forced to change my probe's servers during these changes. So, i have many access keys in my core server now.
How can i find out which access key is related to which probe to remove the old ones?
Thanks a lot.

Hi Hossein,

Thank you very much for your question.

A Probe Access Key can be any alphanumeric string you like. As there is no possibility of comparing the Access Keys on Remote Probe side, I usually suggest to generate new ones in case you like it clean and tidy.

Please navigate to Setup | System Administration | Core & Probes and define as many new Access Keys as there are Remote Probes.
Afterwards, copy each line into the PRTG Administration Tool of each unique Remote Probe to apply them.

Best,
Sebastian
