*Depending on your phone type, you may just see the words 'Use alternate Server?' after you press expand. If this is the case, you need to press the down arrow once to see the host IPs.

    • Once you're finished, click update.
    • If you'd like to make an agent with very similar settings you can use the 'clone' button. Click the 'clone' button and a user with identical selections to the ones we just made will be created; you just have to change the username and given name.
