    Yes, correct
    You can decide how you want the service to run

      To also help clarify, this is important to understand.

      When you create a new software agent, that agent generates its own credentials.
      These are the credentials you put into the /etc/agentid file.

      If that agent gets removed, those credentials are no longer any good.
      Meaning, you would have to create a new one and use those credentials.

      If you have agents at different locations, you can use the Nickname to keep track of which are which and take note that each of those agents would also have their own credentials.

      Therefore, if you use the same credentials, you will mess up your reports.

      The reason for the credentials is to make sure that agents and reports match up.

      Hope this helps a bit more.

        I am just using this for my home so unless I create a windows agent or buy a hardware agent at some point, I don't have a reason to use another agent.

          You can also automate it as a service.

          https://www.outagesio.com/monitor-your-internet-with-linux-desktop-or-server/

          If this article doesn't cover your version, just look online for how to enable a script or something else as a service for your particular platform.

          Hope all is good now.

            some point, I don't have a reason to use another agent.

            No problem. I'm just pointing out how things work in case you decide to monitor other locations.

                If you create an agent but don't complete the install in 24hrs, yes, it automatically gets removed to prevent confusing seeing multiple agents.

                  Will see how this works over time on this linux machine. Otherwise, I may buy a hardware agent if I deem it useful. I am a previous montior.io customer so that's my reason for going this route with outagesio. Thanks!

                    Agent 130561 will NOT be deleted automatically since it was activated by my test
                    If you want to remove it you can do it from the manage menu of the dashboard
