Howto config agents on cluster swarm

Hello,
I’m starting to use checkmk, I’m going to monitor a docker swarm cluster, my checkmk server is installed in a different data center than the swarm cluster, how do I configure the agents to communicate with my checkmk server?

Since I saw that agent.deb uses port 6556 and I released this port in my VPC for one agent and the others, how are they?

Generally you would monitor it the same way you would a docker host. As long as the checkmk server can reach the host that the swarm is on (and the other nodes) you should be able to get this information
