The Active Channel Server comes with a set of pre-installed agents. The options listed below are the ones assumed for each. The name of the option would refer to a key in the RefreshOptions collection (Dictionary Object) passed to the agent during a refresh cycle. The value of the key is then used by the agent to specify its behavior. The agent options are listed in the table below.
