…/installer/README.md, placed after the 'Install Directly on Your System' method list and before 'What can I monitor with Netdata?'. The section is a user-altitude checklist covering the four post-install dashboard checks: (1) Agent service running with http://NODE:19999 reachability, (2) where to look for data (Netdata Cloud for claimed nodes vs local Agent dashboard), (3) claim verification with netdatacli aclk-state troubleshooting, and (4) firewall inbound TCP port 19999 for remote local-dashboard access. Detailed procedures are deferred via outbound links to start-stop-restart.md and src/claim/README.md rather than duplicated inline.
