Network
Outbound HTTPS to console.nyxie.io only. No inbound ports. Remote sessions are relayed through the same host.
Identity
The machine's identity is its SMBIOS UUID, primary MAC and OS install id. Reinstalling the agent on the same hardware re-attaches to the existing record; you never get a ghost.
Linux and macOS agents are being built against the same protocol. They will enrol the same way and appear in the same console.
