client.

Top-Level Guide

The following demonstration will exhibit the step-by-step processes of:

1. Logging into the system

   1. Username & password login by default

   2. Improve security w/ Public SSH Key

      1. Option A → Run ssh-keygen command:

      2. Option B → ls -al .ssh

      3. fdafdasd

         Code Block
         ssh-keygen -t rsa

2. Get Erigon

3. Run Erigon + Setup as a service so it will run again after rebooting

4. Change the hostname of the server

5. Make an exception for SSH, then turn on the firewall.

6. Open Erigon port 30303 through the firewall to allow incoming connections to the node (allows for a trustless, distributed system).

7. Setup DNS so it can be accessed with a domain name.

What You’ll Need:

...

Required Components

• Linux, Mac, or Windows computer running the latest

...

• operating system (OS) version.
  (For Demo: MacBook Pro

...

• + MacOS Monterey 12.2)

• Terminal Emulator / SSH Client

  • Mac: Terminal

...

• • || Windows: PuTTy

...

• • || Linux: OpenSSH

• Login credentials for the server being accessed.

01 Access the Server

Step 1: Open the terminal emulator. (e.g., Terminal, PuTTy, etc.)

...

0.3 System Preparation

0.3.1 Enabling SSH

To access the server remotely, the user must enable Secure Shell (SSH) on their home system.

1. Open Terminal.

2. Enable SSH on the

...

1. system with the following command/s:

   Code Block
   language

...

1. powershell

...

1. sudo systemsetup -setremotelogin on

...

1. Password:

...

1. {Admin Password

...

1. }

Step 3: Access the Server via SSH:

$ ssh {username}@{ip.address}
$ Password: *User's Password*

...

02 Install Dependencies

0.3.2 Disabling SSH

Following the session - and anytime the server is not being accessed - it is best practice to disable SSH on the home system for ensured security.

1. Disable SSH by running this Terminal command/s:

   Code Block
   sudo systemsetup -setremotelogin off Password: {Admin Password}

...

01 SETTING UP THE NODE SERVER

1.1 Connect to the Server via SSH

1. To access the server with SSH, run the following Terminal command/s (replacing details inside the brackets with your provided credentials):

   Code Block
   ssh your_username@{server.ip} Password: {Server Password}

...

02 Install Dependencies

2.1 Viewing and Verifying the Server’s Components

Run the List Block command to view drives and partitions installed on the server.

lsblk

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt dist-upgrade -y
$ sudo apt autoremove -y
$ sudo apt install git
$ sudo apt install npm
