To register a new Cantara Agent (agent pool) in the Cantara Administration Console to establish secure communication between Cantara and your JD Edwards network.
Before you begin
-
You have administrator access to the Cantara Administration Console.
-
You know the target hosting region (this must match the region of the namespace(s) connecting to it).
-
You have the reachable URL of the agent or load balancer.
Procedure
-
Navigate to Cantara Agent.
-
Click + Add Agent Pool.
-
Complete the configuration fields:

|
Name |
A unique name or label used to identify this agent pool when assigning it to namespaces. |
|
Region |
Select the hosting region. Must match the region of the namespace(s) that will use this agent. |
|
Agent URL |
The endpoint URL used by Cantara to reach the agent host or load balancer VIP. |
|
API Key |
Authentication key for agent communication. Automatically generated if left blank. |
|
Secure Header |
(Optional) Custom HTTP header override. Only required if your load balancer or proxy requires a specific header. In standard deployments, leave blank. |

Agent Signing Key |

Regenerating the Agent Signing Key
Only regenerate the signing key as part of a planned key rotation.
Regenerating creates a new key pair and invalidates the public key on your agent host(s). Communication between Cantara and JD Edwards stops until you deploy the new public key to every agent host in the pool.Click Save Agent Pool.
-
Copy the generated Public Key to deploy onto your local agent to establish communication trust.
