NetXMS agent advantage?

It depends on your environment and requirements, but here are some of possible advantages:
* Centralized configuration - you can change configuration of agent from management console; if needed, you can even store agent configs on NetXMS server
* More secure: communications between NetXMS server and agent can be encrypted, additional authentication on agent can be configured
* TCP instead of UDP is used for communications with agent - this can help in case of slow and poor quality links
* Remote command execution - agents can be used to execute commands on managed systems as a reaction to certain events
* Proxy functionality: agent can be used as a proxy to reach agents on hosts not directly accessible by NetXMS server
* SNMP proxy: agent can be used as a proxy to reach remote SNMP devices
* Extensible: you can add new parameters very easy using ExternalParamer configuration option or by writing your own subagents
* Easy upgrade - you can upgrade all agents at once from consoleBest regards,
