Print agent status and versions

-u, --uninstall

Uninstall agent

Less relevant to a CloudGuard WAF Deployment

-q, --stop-agent

Stop the agent functions

-r, --start-agent

Start the agent functions

-sp, --set-proxy

Set proxy

Relevant when the agent is located behind a proxy and a manual override of the proxy settings is required for troubleshooting purposes. Proxy settings are usually automatically set from the OS configuration
