# Manage dynamic tags for Endpoint Agents

Endpoint Agents use **Dynamic Tags** (formerly dynamic labels) to automatically categorize agents based on changing system or network conditions. Unlike standard tags, which are manually assigned to static assets, dynamic tags are rule-based. When an Endpoint Agent meets the criteria defined in the dynamic tag, the tag is automatically applied. If the agent's state changes and it no longer meets the criteria, the tag is removed.

## Configure Dynamic Tags

1. Navigate to **Endpoint Experience > Agent Settings**.
2. Select the **Dynamic Tags** tab.
3. Select **Add New Tag**.
4. Define the **Key** and **Value** for the tag.
5. Set the matching criteria (for example, matching specific subnets, VPN statuses, or geographic locations).
6. Select **Save**.

Once saved, the ThousandEyes platform continuously evaluates your active Endpoint Agents and applies the dynamic tags accordingly. You can use these tags to filter Endpoint views, dashboard widgets, and alert rules.
