Field notes
Pairing uses a code shown in DSM: an operator enters it in the portal and assigns the NAS to a customer and site; the page says the first report arrives seconds later. Each agent signs reports with an ed25519 key. Backup checking includes a canary file that is written, read back, and compared, while DSM updates can move through test, early, pilot, and broad rings. The homepage also describes an outgoing-tunnel terminal with recorded sessions.
