Managing Duplicate Windows Endpoints in ControlUp DEX Console
The team discussed a possible issue with duplicate Windows endpoints in the DEX console and how to handle them. A unique uid is created when the agent is deployed and can cause duplicate machines if the agent is reinstalled or the machine is reimaged. It was suggested to let the cleanup process take care of this, but there may be a way to register by name to avoid duplicate entries. More details can be found in this thread: https://controlupcommunity.slack.com/archives/C0467CPGDM4/p1688761816455149

How to Troubleshoot Connection Issues with ControlUp for Physical Endpoints
There is a potential issue with connecting to a Windows device with Edge DX installed. It was suggested to check the event viewer and device events, and to allow the traffic on the proxy/firewall.
