Znode Build Instructions and Notes

Prerequisites

  • Ubuntu 16.04+
  • Libraries to build from Firo source
  • Port 8168 is open

Step 1. Build

1.1. Check out from source:

git clone https://github.com/firoorg/firo

1.2. See README.md for instructions on building.

Step 2. (Optional - only if firewall is running). Open port 8168

2.1. Run:

sudo ufw allow 8168
sudo ufw default allow outgoing
sudo ufw enable

Step 3. First run on your Local Wallet

3.0. Go to the checked out folder

cd firo

3.1. Start daemon in testnet mode:

./src/firod -daemon -server -testnet

3.2. Generate znodeprivkey:

./src/firo-cli znode genkey

(Store this key)

3.3. Get wallet address:

./src/firo-cli getaccountaddress 0

3.4. Send to received address exactly 1000 FIRO in 1 transaction. Wait for 15 confirmations.

3.5. Stop daemon:

./src/firo-cli stop

Step 4. In your VPS where you are hosting your Znode. Update config files

4.1. Create file firo.conf (in folder ~/.firo)

rpcuser=username
rpcpassword=password
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
debug=1
txindex=1
daemon=1
server=1
listen=1
maxconnections=24
znode=1
znodeprivkey=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX  ## Replace with your znode private key
externalip=XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:8168 ## Replace with your node external IP

4.2. Create file znode.conf (in 2 folders ~/.firo and ~/.firo/testnet3) contains the following info:

  • LABEL: A one word name you make up to call your node (ex. ZN1)
  • IP:PORT: Your znode VPS's IP, and the port is always 18168.
  • ZNODEPRIVKEY: This is the result of your "znode genkey" from earlier.
  • TRANSACTION HASH: The collateral tx. hash from the 1000 FIRO deposit.
  • INDEX: The Index is always 0 or 1.

To get TRANSACTION HASH, run:

./src/firo-cli znode outputs

The output will look like:

{ "d6fd38868bb8f9958e34d5155437d009b72dfd33fc28874c87fd42e51c0f74fdb" : "0", }

Sample of znode.conf:

ZN1 51.52.53.54:18168 XrxSr3fXpX3dZcU7CoiFuFWqeHYw83r28btCFfIHqf6zkMp1PZ4 d6fd38868bb8f9958e34d5155437d009b72dfd33fc28874c87fd42e51c0f74fdb 0

Step 5. Run a znode

5.1. Start znode:

./src/firo-cli znode start-alias <LABEL>

For example:

./src/firo-cli znode start-alias ZN1

5.2. To check node status:

./src/firo-cli znode debug

If not successfully started, just repeat start command
