Open FAQ →Install the Agent
Calibrant, the chainNode discovery agent, runs on Linux (Debian/Ubuntu, RHEL/CentOS) and macOS. It requires Python 3.11+, nmap, and root/sudo for network scanning.
Fresh install
curl -fsSL https://chainnode.pro/install.sh | sudo bash
Windows (PowerShell, as administrator)
iwr -useb https://chainnode.pro/install.ps1 | iex
Upgrade an existing install
sudo bash install.sh --upgrade
Rollback to the previous version
sudo bash install.sh --rollback
You'll be prompted for your API key during install. Generate one in the dashboard at dash.chainnode.pro → API Keys → Create Key.
Configuration
After install, the agent config lives at /opt/chainnode-agent/config.yaml. Common knobs:
agent.scan_interval— seconds between scans. Defaults to 3600 (hourly). Use 60–300 for security-sensitive environments; 3600+ for stable inventories.network.scan_ranges— list of CIDR blocks to scan, orautoto detect local subnets.network.exclude_hosts— IPs to skip (e.g. a loud firewall or sensitive appliance).ai.local_classification— whentrue, classification runs on the agent itself so raw asset data never leaves your network.
See the Operator's Manual §15 for recommended intervals by environment type, and §13 for the full troubleshooting table.
