This guide covers the safest first deployment.
Use Testing mode during initial validation.
Testing mode should be used to identify:
Run:
/acpanel
Confirm that the panel loads and that the dashboard receives current server information.
Run:
/achealth
Resolve critical warnings before relying on enforcement.
Run:
/acaudit
The audit helps identify installation, permission and configuration problems.
Use only the supplied authorised test mechanisms in a private testing environment.
Never test destructive or exploit-like activity on a public server without approval and a rollback plan.
Test common server activities:
After normal activity is understood and integrations are confirmed, move to Balanced mode.
Balanced mode is generally the sensible production starting point.
Strict mode may increase enforcement sensitivity. It should only be enabled after adequate observation, tuning and staff preparation.
