Installing a zLink Agent on any Linux or Windows server creates a virtual interface on the server that allows applications to use the CoIP proxy network. With the zLink Agent, secure encrypted tunnels are terminated directly in the OS layer, providing end-to-end application security for data in flight.
The zLink Agent is required for certain advanced security features, such as Application Interlock.
