rsync from client

I have two computers, one client and one server.

On server side, I can use the following command to synchronize files.

rsync -rvlHpogDtS -password-file=/root/rsyncd.secrets /my_folder/ root@ip_client::module

However, when I was on the player side, what is the command and configuration to retrieve files from server?
That means the result is the same as the above command, just the "caller" is now client not server.

Thanks in advance.

Usage: rsync [OPTION]... SRC [SRC]... DEST

Just switch SRC(source) and DEST(destination). Smilie

Thanks for your reply.

I have to setup configuration for another computer so that the rsync works.

Just like doing the configuration for twice.
