Hello,

I have a few questions about NetGenius.

We are looking for a solution to monitor data usage on a fleet of off-site laptops that are connected with 4G routers that are also using a VPN.

We also use Desktop Central to build/deploy all our software. Is this an option with NetGenius?

Let me know if you need any more information.

Thanks,
Liam

We don't know how Desktop Central works exactly, but there is a couple of ways to automate NetGenius installation:

  • It can be made a part of a machine image deployed to target machines.
  • It can be launched at the target machine with /SILENT or /VERYSILENT command line parameters. It's also possible to specify components to install. For example, this command will install only the service, without GUI:
netgenius_setup.exe /COMPONENTS="svc" /SILENT

In both cases it's possible to deploy a configuration file and licence as well, so everything will work without additional configuration.

That's great information, it looks like we can deploy through Desktop Central.
