main

 host: The ip that the agent listens on.

0.0.0.0 means listen on any available ip address.

Default: 0.0.0.0

 port: The port that the agent listens on.

Default: 6666

 workers: The amount of worker threads that are used to handle the connections.

This does not mean we're limited to only 4 connections at once. This probably shouldn't be

changed. Default: 4

 allowed: A comma separated list of ips that are allowed to communicate with the agent.

If the ip is not in the list the connection is closed instantly and the agent will not work.

Default: an empty list

 debug: If the agent adds debug information or not to the logs and/or console.

Default: 0

shutdown

 url: A url to the webpage that will be called when the shutdown command is sent.

If the value is empty then the machine where the agent is running is shut down.
