This guide will help you find your CKB Node ID when your CKB node or Neuron is up and running. You will need to open a new terminal window to interact with your node without disrupting its operation.
In a new Terminal (on MacOS/Linux) or Command Prompt (on Windows) window, send an RPC request to your node to retrieve its ID. This ID uniquely identifies your node in the network.
Note: If you have changed the default RPC address
http://localhost:8114/
in your CKB node configuration, make sure to replace it in the commands above.
After sending the request, the terminal will display a response containing detailed information about your CKB node.
The response should look something like this:
{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"result": {
"active": true,
"addresses": [
{
"address": "/ip4/0.0.0.0/tcp/8115",
"score": "0x1"
}
],
"connections": "0x8",
"node_id": "**QmdRWNKZ8EVJxhrDusbyYoYaGCQdStB4fSDotis7czUs**",
"protocols": [
//...
],
"version": "0.110.0 (0679b11 2023-05-16)"
},
"id": 2
}
In this response, the node_id
field provides your Node ID. In this example, the Node ID is QmdRWNKZ8EVJxhrDusbyYoYaGCQdStB4fSDotis7czUs
. You can either note down the Node ID or keep the entire output.
Once you have your Node ID, **EMAIL** it to us ****at [email protected] along with any relevant details about your router setup 😉.
