How to automatically select Dynamic and Static Agents for Learning



Overview

In vFunction Server version 4.2, vFunction introduced the ability to select Dynamic and Static Agents automatically. Manual learning configuration now supports selecting controllers by name or tag. Users can choose to learn from a single controller or all controllers matching selected names or tags. Viper controllers follow the same selection logic when Refresh Viper is enabled.
