Wallet Configuration: Ledger/Safe vs. EOA

The appropriate environment file should be selected based on the wallet type being used.

Two key parameters should be configured:

  • PRIVATE_KEY_ATTESTER (Consensus Key):

    This parameter holds the private key that is used for consensus-related operations. It is designated as the Consensus Key and is responsible for signing messages and attestations that participate in the consensus process.

  • OPERATOR_ADDRESS (Controller Key Address):

    This parameter holds the wallet address associated with the controller key. It is used to manage administrative functions and operator configurations. The separation of these keys helps enhance security by ensuring that the key used for consensus operations is distinct from the one controlling operator privileges.

For further details on key roles and separation, please refer to the official documentation: Othentic CLI Private Key Management

Instructions for Running the Setup

  1. Prerequisites:
    • It is expected that Docker and Docker Compose are installed.
    • Ensure that the required environment variables are configured either in a .env file or in your shell environment.
    • Important: Configure network access for P2P communication
      • You must ensure ports 7070 (metrics) and 9876 (P2P communication) are open for inbound traffic in your firewall/router.
      • Without proper port forwarding, the attestation node will be unable to communicate with the network.
      • If you’re behind NAT or want to use different port mappings, see the configuration note below.
  2. Port Configuration Note:
    • Default setup: The system expects ports 7070 and 9876 to be directly accessible from the internet.
    • Custom port mapping: If you need to map the P2P port to a different external port:
      • Uncomment the ANNOUNCED_ADDRESSES section in the docker-compose file
      • Set OPERATOR_PUBLIC_IP to your actual public IP address
      • Set OPERATOR_MAPPED_PORT to your desired external port (e.g., 9878)
      • Update OPERATOR_NODE_ID with your node ID
      • Update your router/firewall to forward the chosen external port to port 9876 on your host
  3. Deploying the Services:

    • Navigate to the directory containing the Docker Compose file.

    • Execute the following command to start the services in detached mode:

      docker-compose up -d

    • The services will be initiated in the background.

  4. Monitoring Logs:

    • To monitor the logs for all services in real time, it is advised to use:

      docker-compose logs -f

    • This command will stream the logs continuously, allowing for live troubleshooting.

  5. Managing the Deployment:

    • To stop the services, the following command can be used:

      docker-compose down

    • If an update of the images is needed, it is recommended to run:

      docker-compose pull && docker-compose up -d
  6. Verify Connectivity:
    • After deployment, verify your node is properly connected to the network by checking:

The document is crafted to assist the operator setup the mainnet attestor nodes, i.e setup, configuration, and troubleshooting of the Capx Cloud Network. It is recommended that each section be reviewed carefully to ensure that the operator environment is configured correctly.
