Connecting Android Agent to Management Console

Right after installation, on a welcome screen Agent suggests connecting it to Resilio Connect Management Console. There are three ways to do it:

 1) Browse for config file. Prior to connecting to MC, deliver the agent config file to the device.

2) Scan QR code. From MC UI show QR code when generating agent config and scan it with the phone.

3) Enter config manually. Manually fill in connection parameters, copy pasting is supported
- Console's address;
- Bootstrap token;
- Certificate fingerprint.

Recheck the connection parameters and apply: 

Default path: is the directory where all folders will be stored per path macro
Management Console Address: the address where agent will be attempting to connect. If DNS is used, make sure it's resolved properly for this mobile.
Bootstrap token: used to authenticate agent on Management Console. Read more here.
Certificate fingerprint: the fingerprint of certificate used on Management Console.
Disable cert check: if "false", agent will check the fingerprint to ensure that it connects to the right MC.

If the connection is successful, the agent will appear in the list of agents on Management Console and will show connection details in Agent Settings-> Agent config section. From here one can disconnect the from Management Console

If connection failed for a reason, tap on the warning on top of agent UI and see connection details.

Go to Agent Settings-> Agent config, review connection parameters - address, bootstrap token or cert fingerprint, disconnect from that MC and try connecting again.

Silent connection & configuration

It is possible to place a configuration file to a predefined location so the Agent will load it upon first start and connect to the Management Console without asking user for connection details. Follow instructions below for silent connection.
