|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Cachet will periodically communicate with our remote server. This is done so
|
|
|
|
|
that we're able to gather information about the current version of Cachet
|
|
|
|
|
and will later be used for system announcements.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Disabling the beacon
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To disable the beacon, you can turn off the following setting in your .env file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
CACHET_BEACON=false
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
