1. Go to Administration > Managed Servers > Server Registration.
2. Select a product from the Server Type dropdown list.
3. Click the Add button or the Add a product link in the table.
4. Specify the following server information:
   • Server: Type the <managed product> server name, FQDN, or IPv4/IPv6 address and port number (if any).
      

     The server address should start with either HTTP or HTTPS.

      
   • Display name: Specify the name of the <managed product> server that displays in Apex Central.
5. If logging on to the managed server requires authentication, specify the following credentials:
   • User name: Provide the name of a account with administrator privileges.

   Apex Central requires an account with administrator privileges to deploy policy settings.

    
6. Optionally, select the Use a proxy server for the connection check box, if needed.

   • For Deep Security and Trend Micro Endpoint Sensor, you must add the managed server first and then edit the server to select the Virtual Analyzer.
   • For all other managed products, you can select the Virtual Analyzer when you add the managed server for the first time.
