## What you learned in Module 2

- How Fleet Management works — collectors register, poll for config, send health data
- Access tokens authenticate collectors with Fleet Management
- Attributes organize your fleet using key-value pairs
- Health monitoring provides centralized visibility into fleet health

* * *

In this module, you’ll learn to configure collectors remotely at scale:

- **The scaling challenge** — Why manual configuration doesn’t work
- **Configuration pipelines** — Creating and managing remote configs
- **Attribute matching** — Targeting pipelines to specific collectors
- **Configuration strategies** — Balancing local and remote config
- **Safety safeguards** — Experimenting with confidence
- **Hands-on practice** — Categorize your fleet with remote attributes
