How to open RPC/WS to external connections¶
In order to accept incoming connections from the network you need to configure the node accordingly. This can be done editing the /home/quadrans/environment
file.
The default for the node is to listen to localhost only, using port 8456 for web-socket and 8545 for rpc.
Once edited, save the file and restart your node. Use netstat to check the changes.
For web-socket¶
The first parameter enables web-socket, the second sets the IP address to listen to, the third is the port
--ws --wsaddr "0.0.0.0" --wsport "8546"
For RPC¶
The first parameter enables rpc, the second sets the IP address to listen to, the third is the port
--rpc --rpcaddr "0.0.0.0" --rpcport "8545"
