Configuring Agent Client Collector with a MID Server
concept australia Updated Sep 10, 2026 1 min read acc-configuring-with-mid.md
Configure the Agent Client Collector with a MID Server to enable communication between network servers and the ServiceNow instance.
- Configure an Agent Client Collector with a MID Server using a single-line command
Use a single-line command to set up an Agent Client Collector with a MID Server. You can also use the single-line command to migrate agents with MID-less configuration to be used with a MID Server. - Configure the websocket server on the MID Server
Configure the websocket server on MID Servers to enable connections from agents to the MID Server. You can configure only one websocket server per MID Server. - Configure a websocket endpoint
Configure a websocket to enable the endpoint to provide web access from the MID Server to the Agent Client Collector (ACC). - Configure the frequency of updating the agent MID Server list
By default, the list of MID servers connected to agents is updated once daily. If you have a dynamic environment that adds MID servers frequently, you may want to schedule updates more often, or execute the job on demand. - Enable Agent Client Collector monitoring on the MID Server
Enable Agent Client Collector monitoring on the MID Server by configuring the Agent Client Collector framework (ACC-F) and Metric Intelligence extensions in a single action. Enabling Agent Client Collector monitoring also enables monitoring on agents connected to the MID Server. - Automatic MID Server selection
Automatic selection of MID Servers ensures that each agent uses the most efficient available MID Server.
