Platform Agent

Introduction

The Platform Agent allows communication from a VOLTTRON Central instance. Each VOLTTRON instance that is to be controlled through the VOLTTRON Central agent should have one and only one Platform Agent. The Platform Agent must have the VIP identity of platform.agent.

Configuration

The minimal configuration (and most likely the only used) for a Platform Agent is as follows

{
    # Agent id is used in the display on volttron central.
    "agentid": "Platform 1",
}

The other options for the Platform Agent configuration can be found in the Platform Agent source directory.
