+## Use Cases
+
+### Enable metrics only
+1. **Access the NGINX Instance:** SSH to the virtual machine/server where NGINX Agent is running.
+
+```
+    ssh user@your-nginx-instance
+```
+
+2. **Edit NGINX Agent configuration:** 
+
+```
+    sudo vim /etc/nginx-agent/nginx-agent.conf
+```
+
+3. **Add Features section:** Add the following yaml to the end of the file:
+
+```
+    features:
+      - metrics
+      - metrics-throttle
+      - dataplane-status
+``` 
+
+4. **Restart the NGINX Agent service:** Restart the NGINX Agent service to enable changes.
+
+Once the steps have been completed, users will be able to view metrics data being sent but will not have the capability to push NGINX configuration changes.
+
+### Enable the publishing of NGINX configurations and disable the collection of metrics.
+1. **Access the NGINX Instance:** SSH to the virtual machine/server where NGINX Agent is running.
+
+```

+
+```
+    sudo vim /etc/nginx-agent/nginx-agent.conf

+      - dataplane-status
+      - file-watcher
+``` 
+
+4. **Restart the NGINX Agent service:** Restart the NGINX Agent service to enable changes.
