8. The Agent Status should change from Disconnected to Connected or Connecting
9. If it gets the Connected Status, all is good

11. Firewall port 5494 must be opened for outbound connections for MobiControl to work. The Mobicontrol Server has the IP address 40.68.196.181 and hostname ds1.mobi.taskletfactory.com and ds1.mob2.taskletfactory.com + 40.114.220.164 port 5494.
