<h1 class="topictitle1">Set up your agent environment</h1>
<div><p>Before you can begin managing your agents with the Intelligent
Agents console, you will need to configure your agents and agent services
(the agent platform) to run on or across the systems in your environment.
A secure environment requires Kerberos and additional platform
configuration.</p>
<div class="section"><p>The <span class="keyword">iSeries™ Navigator</span> Intelligent
Agents console functions by connecting to an agent platform running on your
system, or across a distributed network. The agent platform defines the agent
pools (JVMs) that your agent services and agents will run in. Before you begin
setting up your agent platform, you will need to determine your security preferences.
A secure platform requires that you configure Kerberos. The following topics
provide detailed steps for setting up your agent platform and configuring
security:</p>

<ul class="ullinks">
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzahxagentconfigure.htm">Configure your agent platform</a></strong><br />
Provides a brief overview of the agent platform, and then provides
detailed configuration steps for modifying the platform preferences file.
Before you begin using the Intelligent Agents console in <span class="keyword">iSeries Navigator</span>,
you first need to configure the agent platform.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzahxagentsecure.htm">Secure your agent environment</a></strong><br />
It is strongly recommended that you use Kerberos user and service principals to authenticate users, agent pools, and agent services to one another on or across a secure platform or distributed platform.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzahxagentstartplatform.htm">Start the agent platform</a></strong><br />
After you define the agent platform and optionally secure your
platform, you will need to start all the Java™ Virtual Machines associated with your
agent services using <span class="keyword">iSeries</span> CL
commands.</li>
