Pundi X Chain opens for Public Validators

Hi @FrenchXCore.
I have a couple more questions about ports:
What is port 8545 for? (It doesn’t put it in the documentation.)
Are you sure you don’t need to open port 26657? (it does put it in the documentation).
Thank you.

I’m assuming ports 8545 and 26657 are both for FXCORE EVM and FXCORE Classic GRPC endpoints.
So, you might not need to open 8545 to the outside.
@lancelai : Gitbook page should be updated to add port 8545.

You probably need to open them only if you need to interact from outside with your own node.

Regards,

Thank you very much for the answer @FrenchXCore.
Yes, that’s the case, I need to interact from the outside with the node.

port 8545 not required

  • 26656
    • p2p networking port to connect to the fxcore network
    • On a validator this port needs to be exposed to sentry nodes
    • On a sentry node this port needs to be exposed to the open internet
  • 26657
    • fxcore RPC port
    • This should be shielded from the open internet
