Why each option
To manage network devices that do not support installing agent software, an agentless configuration management approach is the appropriate choice.
Agent-based configuration management requires an agent software to be installed and running on each managed device, which is not supported in this scenario.
Agentless configuration management tools directly connect to devices using standard protocols like SSH or SNMP to push configurations or retrieve information, making them suitable for devices where agents cannot be installed.
Proxy-agent configuration involves an intermediary agent, which still implies some form of agent dependency, even if not directly on the end device.
An appropriate solution, agentless configuration, exists for managing devices that do not support agents.
