Troubleshooting
- If the node fails to connect, check the API credentials and controller URL.
- Timeout errors may occur if the server is slow or unreachable; increase the timeout setting if needed.
- SSL certificate errors can be bypassed by enabling the 'Ignore SSL Issues' option, but this reduces security.
- Proxy settings must be correctly configured if a proxy is required for network access.
