Spiceworks Agent

If you run a Spiceworks server and it is having performance issues with pulling information from your network clients then it is better to use the push method. This require the installation of the Spiceworks Agent. You get this from your Spiceworks server console.

There are instructions on the Spiceworks site on how to setup a key.
