Is the device a dedicated physical machine or VM?

Dedicated physical machine, not virtualized. Each user gets a real Mac Mini M4 device with exclusive access to all CPU, memory, and storage — no resource contention, 100% performance.

Is the bandwidth and IP address dedicated?

Yes, each device is assigned one dedicated public IPv4 with an exclusive 1 Gbps network port — no shared bandwidth. Optional Thunderbolt 5 Link service (80 Gbps) is also available for building multi-machine clusters.

What is the Thunderbolt 5 Link service?

This is MacLogin's premium interconnect service that uses Thunderbolt 5's 80 Gbps bandwidth to physically link multiple Mac Minis into a high-performance compute cluster. Ideal for iOS compile farms, render clusters, and distributed AI inference. Add this service at checkout.

What are the differences between nodes?

Hardware specs and pricing are identical across all nodes. The difference is geographic network location:
Singapore: Low latency for Southeast Asia, ideal for overseas businesses
Japan (Tokyo): Premium East Asia node, stable and low-latency
South Korea (Seoul): Ideal for Korea and nearby markets
Hong Kong: Friendly access from mainland China
US East: Coverage for North America and Europe
All nodes are Tier 3+ data centers with dedicated IPv4 and 1 Gbps bandwidth.

Zero-Trust & Permission Model

What does Zero-Trust remote Mac login mean?

Zero-Trust means every user and session must be explicitly authenticated before accessing a Mac node — even within your team. There are no shared admin accounts. Each user gets a dedicated login credential with scoped permissions, enforced at the network and OS level. Every session is logged and auditable.

Can multiple team members share a single Mac node?

Yes — MacLogin supports multi-user isolation on dedicated Mac mini M4 nodes. Each user account operates in a separate macOS user space with its own home directory, environment variables, and file permissions. Users cannot access each other's data without explicit macOS system permissions.

Why are shared admin accounts a security risk?

Shared admin accounts break audit trails — you can no longer tell who made a specific change or accessed sensitive data. If a shared credential is leaked, the entire Mac node is exposed. Individual accounts with least-privilege access are the foundation of any Zero-Trust security model.

Are remote login sessions audited?

MacLogin logs all SSH and VNC session events at the infrastructure level, including connection timestamps, source IPs, and authentication results. For detailed application-level audit logging, you can configure macOS's built-in audit subsystem (auditd) or integrate with your preferred SIEM solution.

How do I restrict a user's access to specific ports or services?

You can configure macOS Application Firewall rules and SSH AllowUsers / Match directives to limit what each user can access. For network-level isolation between users or workloads, we recommend running each AI agent or service in a separate macOS user account, and using Tailscale or similar Zero-Trust network overlay to define service access boundaries.

OpenClaw Sandbox FAQ

What is OpenClaw and why should I run it on a separate Mac?

OpenClaw is an AI agent framework that can execute shell commands, access the filesystem, and interact with external services. Running it on your primary development machine creates significant risk — a misconfigured agent or supply-chain attack could expose your private keys, source code, and personal data. A dedicated Mac mini M4 cloud node provides full hardware isolation: even if an agent goes rogue, it cannot reach your local machine.

How do I deploy OpenClaw safely on MacLogin?

The recommended setup is:

1. Provision a dedicated Mac mini M4 node (separate from your primary work node)
2. Create a dedicated macOS user account for OpenClaw with no sudo privileges
3. Store API keys and secrets using macOS Keychain or a secrets manager — never in plaintext config files
4. Restrict outbound network access to only the domains the agent needs
5. Enable session logging so you can review what the agent did

Contact support if you need help with initial OpenClaw configuration.

Can I run Claude Code alongside OpenClaw on the same node?

Yes, but we recommend isolating them in separate macOS user accounts if they handle different projects or have different permission scopes. Both OpenClaw and Claude Code can execute arbitrary shell commands, so sharing a single user account between them eliminates the isolation boundary. For sensitive workloads, use separate Mac mini nodes entirely.

How should I manage API keys and secrets for AI agents?

Never store secrets in plaintext files, shell history, or environment variable exports in .zshrc/.bashrc. Use macOS Keychain for local secret storage, or a purpose-built secrets manager. Rotate API keys regularly, especially after any agent execution that touched external services. Audit which keys each agent account has access to.

What happens if an OpenClaw deployment crashes or hangs?

Use the MacLogin console to restart or power-cycle your Mac mini node. For automatic recovery, configure macOS launchd to restart the OpenClaw process on failure. You can also set up a lightweight health-check script that monitors the agent process and triggers an alert (via email or webhook) if it stops unexpectedly. Contact support if you need help with automated recovery configuration.
