Hello all,

Currently I have ActiveGate for remote technologies with extensions.

Refer to this documentation → [Create a private Synthetic location in Classic — Dynatrace Docs](https://www.dynatrace.com/support/help/platform-modules/digital-experience/synthetic-monitoring/private-synthetic-locations/create-a-private-synthetic-location) , I should uninstall existing ActiveGate first before I could enable synthetic for private location function.

Does it mean that my ActiveGate will no longer able to remote technologies with extensions?

Is it possible to have 1 ActiveGate but with two function such as Private Location Synthetic Monitor and Remote Technologies with Extensions?

Thank you.

Not officially supported by Dynatrace, but it can be done (I have one working case):

It still works (for you)? I think I tried with recent AG and the setting had no effect.
