This procedure makes the following assumptions:

For custom installations:

Modify the configuration and module paths below as needed.
To modify the values for Apache’s configuration and module directories, edit the included paa.conf file.

Download and extract pingaccess-agent-apache<version>.zip.
Go to the pingaccess-agent-apache<version> directory.
Copy the paa.conf file into the Apache configuration directory.
Add the following to Apache’s httpd.conf file.
```
Include conf/paa.conf
```
Copy the paa folder into the Apache modules directory.

In the PingAccess console, go to Applications → Agents.
Edit a configured agent.

If the agent has not yet been created, see Adding agents.
In the shared secret, click Download to download the configuration.

The configuration file is named <agentname>_agent.properties.
On the Agent system, create the C:/apache24/conf.d folder if it does not exist.
Copy the <agentname>_agent.properties file to C:/apache24/conf.d/agent.properties.
Restart Apache.
