 Find the unique instance ID from the Miradore instance side by navigating to Administration > System settings > Main and copy it for later use.
|

|
Create a new instance in MSP console by navigating to Administration > Instances and clicking the "Create new" -button or choosing Tasks > Create...
-
Display name, Unique instance ID and Allowed time frame are mandatory fields.
-
Description, Instance url and Update interval are optional.
-
 Paste here the unique instance ID copied from the Miradore instance (see step 1).
-
Allowed time frame can be for example 00:00 - 23:59 which means that the instance is allowed to connect and process MSP console jobs at any time.
-
Update interval specifies how often data should be updated (in hours).
-
PIN code is automatically generated by MSP console when registering an instance. It is used to authenticate the instance and it must be entered in the Miradore instance side when adding a new MSP connector there.
|

|
Enable the connection in MSP console by setting the value of Connection enabled to 'Yes'.
|

|
Add a new MSP connector in Miradore instance by navigating to Administration > System settings > Connectors and clients > Connectors and clicking "Add connector configuration..." and selecting connector type as 'MSP'.

MSP console network traffic
Current MSP console connector works over normal not encrypted HTTP protocol, but the traffic itself is encrypted on software layer by WS-Security (wikipedia link). MSP connector connections are always initiated from instance to the MSP console.
Correct SSL certificate must be available in connector host computers Windows certificate store if HTTPS connection method is enabled from Miradore system settings
