Remove or Upgrade Auth Agent

A configured Auth Agent establishes a connection to RICOH CloudStream Device Management. Successful communication registers the Auth Agent and assigns a certificate to it. The Auth Agent certificate can be found in Certificate Management. A certified Auth Agent is displayed in the LDAP authentication profile's Auth Agent, Not Assigned section.


Upgrade the Auth Agent

To upgrade the Auth Agent, run a newer version of the Auth Agent installer. Enter credentials required for the service to run and then click Install. You do not need to enter the onboarding code if upgrading with this method.
