Up to version 3.1 that parameter was needed because during host 
registration the host initiated connections to the engine web server to 
download several files (certificates, scripts, etc). This parameter was 
the base of some of those files (mostly scripts).

Starting with version 3.2 the engine sends all the required files to the 
hosts using SSH, so there is no need for this parameter. See the 
following URL for more details:
