# Configure the resource pool for an Agent

The Resource Pool tab on the Agent page enables you to configure the resource pool on which you can deploy services. Specifically, you configure IP addresses and network interfaces for the resource pool. The resource pool provides access to physical computing resources (such as CPU cycles, memory, and IP addresses) and pre-installed software that a service needs to run.

You configure the resource pool initially when you create an Agent using the WLOC Configuration Wizard, as described in Configuring the Controller and Agents.

To configure the resource pool for a plain Agent, perform the following steps:

- Configure the general resource pool information for plain Agents

- Configure the resource pool software for plain Agents

To configure the resource pool for an ESX Agent, perform the following steps:

- Configure the general resource pool information for ESX Agent

- Configure resource pool software for ESX Agents

- Configure the resource pool networks for ESX Agents
