OpsRamp agents can connect to the OpsRamp cloud in two ways:

  • Direct Agent: The direct agent connects to the OpsRamp cloud directly, and this type of agent does not require any special configuration.
  • Proxy Agent: The proxy agents are configured to connect to the cloud using an HTTP proxy embedded in the gateway.
