@SachinJindal
Check out the Configuration properties and parameters of ActiveGate:
https://docs.dynatrace.com/docs/ingest-from/dynatrace-activegate/configuration/configure-activegate

In the first 3, dedicate them to OneAgent routing. Guarantee that you have the following, while disabling whatever you don't need.

[collector]
MSGrouter = true

In the other 2, guarantee that the extension_controller section is enabled, while disabling routing.

Check whether you also need the other modules. restart ActiveGates and check in Deployment Status that they are working as intended...

Hi,

You can disable all of them, except "Extensions" https://docs.dynatrace.com/docs/shortlink/sgw-configure#modules

Thanks Anton .. i did disable most of them and see this Oneagent routing still present which i wanted to disable...

Note :- Reason i wanted to do this i have created 3 AG with default network zone (Environment AG's) and 2 with XXX network zone (Extension AG's) .. currently oneagent is sending the traffic to all of the AG's but i wanted only to sent to default Environment AG only
:~ $ agctl modules get
Enabled modules:
[autoupdate, extension_controller]

Hi,

You can configure OneAgent to AGs network zone and it would try to use that AG as first option.

Best regards
