Creative Commons Corporation ("Creative Commons") is not a law firm and
|
||||
does not provide legal services or legal advice. Distribution of
|
||||
Creative Commons public licenses does not create a lawyer-client or
|
||||
other relationship. Creative Commons makes its licenses and related
|
||||
information available on an "as-is" basis. Creative Commons gives no
|
||||
warranties regarding its licenses, any material licensed under their

terms and conditions, or any related information. Creative Commons

|
||||
|
||||
Using Creative Commons Public Licenses
|
||||
|
||||
Creative Commons public licenses provide a standard set of terms and
|
||||
conditions that creators and other rights holders may use to share
|
||||
original works of authorship and other material subject to copyright
|
||||
and certain other rights specified in the public license below. The
|
||||
following considerations are for informational purposes only, are not
|
||||
exhaustive, and do not form part of our licenses.
|
||||
|
||||
Considerations for licensors: Our public licenses are
|
||||
intended for use by those authorized to give the public
|
||||
permission to use material in ways otherwise restricted by
|
||||
copyright and certain other rights. Our licenses are
|
||||
irrevocable. Licensors should read and understand the terms
|
||||
and conditions of the license they choose before applying it.
|
||||
Licensors should also secure all rights necessary before
|
||||
applying our licenses so that the public can reuse the
|
||||
material as expected. Licensors should clearly mark any
|
||||
material not subject to the license. This includes other CC-
|
||||
licensed material, or material used under an exception or
|
||||
limitation to copyright. More considerations for licensors:

||||

|
||||
|
||||
Considerations for the public: By using one of our public
|
||||
licenses, a licensor grants the public permission to use the
|
||||
licensed material under specified terms and conditions. If
|
||||
the licensor's permission is not necessary for any reason--for
|
||||
example, because of any applicable exception or limitation to
|
||||
copyright--then that use is not regulated by the license. Our
|
||||
licenses grant only permissions under copyright and certain
|
||||
other rights that a licensor has authority to grant. Use of
|
||||
the licensed material may still be restricted for other
|
||||
reasons, including because others have copyright or other
|
||||
rights in the material. A licensor may make special requests,
|
||||
such as asking that all changes be marked or described.
|
||||
Although not required by our licenses, you are encouraged to
|
||||
respect those requests where reasonable. More considerations

|
||||
a. License grant.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Public License,
|
||||
the Licensor hereby grants You a worldwide, royalty-free,
|
||||
non-sublicensable, non-exclusive, irrevocable license to
|
||||
exercise the Licensed Rights in the Licensed Material to:
|
||||
|
||||
a. reproduce and Share the Licensed Material, in whole or
|
||||
in part, for NonCommercial purposes only; and
|
||||
|
||||
b. produce, reproduce, and Share Adapted Material for
|
||||
NonCommercial purposes only.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Exceptions and Limitations. For the avoidance of doubt, where
|
||||
Exceptions and Limitations apply to Your use, this Public
|
||||
License does not apply, and You do not need to comply with
|
||||
its terms and conditions.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Term. The term of this Public License is specified in Section
|
||||
6(a).
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
Licensor authorizes You to exercise the Licensed Rights in
|
||||
all media and formats whether now known or hereafter created,
|
||||
and to make technical modifications necessary to do so. The
|
||||
Licensor waives and/or agrees not to assert any right or
|
||||
authority to forbid You from making technical modifications
|
||||
necessary to exercise the Licensed Rights, including
|
||||
technical modifications necessary to circumvent Effective
|
||||
Technological Measures. For purposes of this Public License,
|
||||
simply making modifications authorized by this Section 2(a)
|
||||
(4) never produces Adapted Material.
|
||||
|
||||
5. Downstream recipients.
|
||||
|
||||
a. Offer from the Licensor -- Licensed Material. Every
|
||||
recipient of the Licensed Material automatically
|
||||
receives an offer from the Licensor to exercise the
|
||||
Licensed Rights under the terms and conditions of this
|
||||
Public License.
|
||||
|
||||
b. Additional offer from the Licensor -- Adapted Material.
|
||||
Every recipient of Adapted Material from You
|
||||
automatically receives an offer from the Licensor to
|
||||
exercise the Licensed Rights in the Adapted Material
|
||||
under the conditions of the Adapter's License You apply.
|
||||
|
||||
c. No downstream restrictions. You may not offer or impose
|
||||
any additional or different terms or conditions on, or
|
||||
apply any Effective Technological Measures to, the
|
||||
Licensed Material if doing so restricts exercise of the
|
||||
Licensed Rights by any recipient of the Licensed
|
||||
Material.
|
||||
|
||||
6. No endorsement. Nothing in this Public License constitutes or
|
||||
may be construed as permission to assert or imply that You
|
||||
are, or that Your use of the Licensed Material is, connected
|
||||
with, or sponsored, endorsed, or granted official status by,
|
||||
the Licensor or others designated to receive attribution as
|
||||
provided in Section 3(a)(1)(A)(i).
|
||||
|
||||
b. Other rights.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Moral rights, such as the right of integrity, are not
|
||||
licensed under this Public License, nor are publicity,
|
||||
privacy, and/or other similar personality rights; however, to
|
||||
the extent possible, the Licensor waives and/or agrees not to
|
||||
assert any such rights held by the Licensor to the limited
|
||||
extent necessary to allow You to exercise the Licensed
|
||||
Rights, but not otherwise.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Patent and trademark rights are not licensed under this
|
||||
Public License.
|
||||
|
||||
3. To the extent possible, the Licensor waives any right to
|
||||
collect royalties from You for the exercise of the Licensed
|
||||
Rights, whether directly or through a collecting society
|
||||
under any voluntary or waivable statutory or compulsory
|
||||
licensing scheme. In all other cases the Licensor expressly
|
||||
reserves any right to collect such royalties, including when
|
||||
the Licensed Material is used other than for NonCommercial
|
||||
purposes.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Section 3 -- License Conditions.
|
||||
|
||||
Your exercise of the Licensed Rights is expressly made subject to the
|
||||
following conditions.
|
||||
|
||||
a. Attribution.
|
||||
|
||||
1. If You Share the Licensed Material (including in modified
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
a. retain the following if it is supplied by the Licensor
|
||||
with the Licensed Material:

||||

||||

||||
the Licensor (including by pseudonym if
|
||||
designated);
|
||||
|
||||
ii. a copyright notice;
|
||||
|
||||

||||
|
||||
v. a URI or hyperlink to the Licensed Material to the
|
||||
extent reasonably practicable;
|
||||
|
||||
b. indicate if You modified the Licensed Material and
|
||||
retain an indication of any previous modifications; and
|
||||
|
||||
c. indicate the Licensed Material is licensed under this
|
||||
Public License, and include the text of, or the URI or
|
||||
hyperlink to, this Public License.
|
||||
|
||||
2. You may satisfy the conditions in Section 3(a)(1) in any
|
||||
reasonable manner based on the medium, means, and context in
|
||||
which You Share the Licensed Material. For example, it may be
|
||||
reasonable to satisfy the conditions by providing a URI or
|
||||
hyperlink to a resource that includes the required
|
||||
information.
|
||||
3. If requested by the Licensor, You must remove any of the
|
||||
information required by Section 3(a)(1)(A) to the extent
|
||||
reasonably practicable.
|
||||
|
||||
b. ShareAlike.
|
||||
|
||||
In addition to the conditions in Section 3(a), if You Share
|
||||
Adapted Material You produce, the following conditions also apply.
|
||||
|
||||
1. The Adapter's License You apply must be a Creative Commons
|
||||
license with the same License Elements, this version or
|
||||
later, or a BY-NC-SA Compatible License.
|
||||
|
||||
2. You must include the text of, or the URI or hyperlink to, the
|
||||
Adapter's License You apply. You may satisfy this condition
|
||||
in any reasonable manner based on the medium, means, and
|
||||
context in which You Share Adapted Material.
|
||||
|
||||
3. You may not offer or impose any additional or different terms
|
||||
or conditions on, or apply any Effective Technological
|
||||
Measures to, Adapted Material that restrict exercise of the
|
||||
rights granted under the Adapter's License You apply.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Section 4 -- Sui Generis Database Rights.
|
||||
|
||||
Where the Licensed Rights include Sui Generis Database Rights that
|
||||
apply to Your use of the Licensed Material:
|
||||
|
||||
a. for the avoidance of doubt, Section 2(a)(1) grants You the right
|
||||
to extract, reuse, reproduce, and Share all or a substantial
|
||||
portion of the contents of the database for NonCommercial purposes
|
||||
only;
|
||||
|
||||
b. if You include all or a substantial portion of the database
|
||||
contents in a database in which You have Sui Generis Database
|
||||
Rights, then the database in which You have Sui Generis Database
|
||||
Rights (but not its individual contents) is Adapted Material,
|
||||
including for purposes of Section 3(b); and
|
||||
|
||||
c. You must comply with the conditions in Section 3(a) if You Share
|
||||
all or a substantial portion of the contents of the database.
|
||||
|
||||
For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 4 supplements and does not
|
||||
replace Your obligations under this Public License where the Licensed
|
||||
Rights include other Copyright and Similar Rights.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Section 5 -- Disclaimer of Warranties and Limitation of Liability.
|
||||
|
||||
a. UNLESS OTHERWISE SEPARATELY UNDERTAKEN BY THE LICENSOR, TO THE
|
||||
EXTENT POSSIBLE, THE LICENSOR OFFERS THE LICENSED MATERIAL AS-IS
|
||||
AND AS-AVAILABLE, AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF
|
||||
ANY KIND CONCERNING THE LICENSED MATERIAL, WHETHER EXPRESS,
|
||||
IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHER. THIS INCLUDES, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
|
||||
WARRANTIES OF TITLE, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
|
||||
PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ABSENCE OF LATENT OR OTHER DEFECTS,
|
||||
ACCURACY, OR THE PRESENCE OR ABSENCE OF ERRORS, WHETHER OR NOT
|
||||
KNOWN OR DISCOVERABLE. WHERE DISCLAIMERS OF WARRANTIES ARE NOT
|
||||
ALLOWED IN FULL OR IN PART, THIS DISCLAIMER MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
|
||||
|
||||
b. TO THE EXTENT POSSIBLE, IN NO EVENT WILL THE LICENSOR BE LIABLE
|
||||
TO YOU ON ANY LEGAL THEORY (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
|
||||
NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE FOR ANY DIRECT, SPECIAL, INDIRECT,
|
||||
INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, OR OTHER LOSSES,
|
||||
COSTS, EXPENSES, OR DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THIS PUBLIC LICENSE OR
|
||||
USE OF THE LICENSED MATERIAL, EVEN IF THE LICENSOR HAS BEEN
|
||||
ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSSES, COSTS, EXPENSES, OR
|
||||
DAMAGES. WHERE A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY IS NOT ALLOWED IN FULL OR
|
||||
IN PART, THIS LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
|
||||
|
||||
c. The disclaimer of warranties and limitation of liability provided
|
||||
above shall be interpreted in a manner that, to the extent
|
||||
possible, most closely approximates an absolute disclaimer and
|
||||
waiver of all liability.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Section 6 -- Term and Termination.
|
||||
|
||||
a. This Public License applies for the term of the Copyright and
|
||||
Similar Rights licensed here. However, if You fail to comply with
|
||||
this Public License, then Your rights under this Public License
|
||||
terminate automatically.
|
||||
|
||||
b. Where Your right to use the Licensed Material has terminated under
|
||||
Section 6(a), it reinstates:
|
||||
|
||||
1. automatically as of the date the violation is cured, provided
|
||||
it is cured within 30 days of Your discovery of the
|
||||
violation; or
|
||||
|
||||
2. upon express reinstatement by the Licensor.
|
||||
|
||||
For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6(b) does not affect any
|
||||
right the Licensor may have to seek remedies for Your violations
|
||||
of this Public License.
|
||||
|
||||
c. For the avoidance of doubt, the Licensor may also offer the
|
||||
Licensed Material under separate terms or conditions or stop
|
||||
distributing the Licensed Material at any time; however, doing so
|
||||
will not terminate this Public License.
|
||||
|
||||
d. Sections 1, 5, 6, 7, and 8 survive termination of this Public
|
||||
License.
|
||||
|

|
||||
|
||||
a. The Licensor shall not be bound by any additional or different
|
||||
terms or conditions communicated by You unless expressly agreed.

||||
|
||||
Section 8 -- Interpretation.
|
||||
|
||||
a. For the avoidance of doubt, this Public License does not, and
|
||||
shall not be interpreted to, reduce, limit, restrict, or impose
|
||||
conditions on any use of the Licensed Material that could lawfully
|
||||
be made without permission under this Public License.
|
||||
|
||||
b. To the extent possible, if any provision of this Public License is
|
||||
deemed unenforceable, it shall be automatically reformed to the
|
||||
minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable. If the provision
|
||||
cannot be reformed, it shall be severed from this Public License
|
||||
without affecting the enforceability of the remaining terms and
|
||||
conditions.
|
||||
|
||||
c. No term or condition of this Public License will be waived and no
|
||||
failure to comply consented to unless expressly agreed to by the
|
||||
Licensor.
|
||||
|
||||
d. Nothing in this Public License constitutes or may be interpreted
|
||||
as a limitation upon, or waiver of, any privileges and immunities
|

that apply to the Licensor or You, including from the legal

processes of any jurisdiction or authority.

### WSS on a new Gateway
|
||||
|
||||
These steps are for an operator who is setting up a [Gateway](gateway-setup.md) for the first time and wants to run it with WSS.
|
||||
|
||||
1. New flags will need to be added to the `init` and `run` command. The `--host` option should be replaced with these flags:
|
||||
|
||||
- `--listening-address`: The IP address which is used for receiving sphinx packets and listening to client data.
|
||||
- `--public-ips`: A comma separated list of IP’s that are announced to the `nym-api`. In the most cases `--public-ips` **is the address used for bonding.**
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
--listening-address 0.0.0.0 --public-ips "$(curl -4 https://ifconfig.me)"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- `--hostname` (optional): This flag is required if the operator wishes to run WSS. It can be something like `mainnet-gateway2.nymtech.net`.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Make sure to enable all necessary [ports](maintenance.md#configure-your-firewall) on the Gateway:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
sudo ufw allow 1789,1790,8000,9000,9001,22/tcp, 9001/tcp
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The Gateway will then be accessible on something like: *http://85.159.211.99:8080/api/v1/swagger/index.html*
|
||||
|
||||
Are you seeing something like: *this node attempted to announce an invalid public address: 0.0.0.0.*?

### WSS on a new Gateway

||||
|
||||
These steps are for an operator who is setting up a Gateway for the first time and wants to run it with WSS.
|
||||
|
||||
New flags will need to be added to the `init` and `run` command. The `--host` option is still accepted for now, but can and should be replaced with `--listening-address`, this is the IP address which is used for receiving sphinx packets and listening to client data.
|
||||
|
||||
Another flag `--public-ips` is required; it's a comma separated list of IP’s that are announced to the `nym-api`, it is usually the address which is used for bonding.
|
||||
|
||||
If the operator wishes to run WSS, an optional `--hostname` flag is also required, that can be something like `mainnet-gateway2.nymtech.net`. Make sure to enable all necessary [ports](maintenance.md#configure-your-firewall) on the Gateway.
|
||||
|
||||
The Gateway will then be accessible on something like: *http://85.159.211.99:8080/api/v1/swagger/index.html*

Are you seeing something like: *this node attempted to announce an invalid public address: 0.0.0.0.*?

|
||||
Please modify `[host.public_ips]` section of your config file stored as `~/.nym/gateways/<ID>/config/config.toml`.

Although it’s not totally necessary, it's useful to have the Mix Node automatically start at system boot time.

#### Following steps for Nym nodes running as `systemd` service
|
||||
|
||||
Change the `<PATH>` in `ExecStart` to point at your `<NODE>` binary (`nym-mixnode`, `nym-gateway` or `nym-network-requester`), and the `<USER>` so it is the user you are running as.
|
||||
|
||||
Example: If you have built nym in the `$HOME` directory on your server, your username is `jetpanther`, and node `<ID>` is `puma`, then the `ExecStart` line (command) in the script located in `/etc/systemd/system/nym-mixnode.service` for Nym Mixnode might look like this:
|
||||
|
||||
`ExecStart=/home/jetpanther/nym/target/release/nym-mixnode run --id puma`.
|
||||
|
||||
Basically, you want the full `/<PATH>/<TO>/nym-mixnode run --id <WHATEVER-YOUR-NODE-ID-IS>`. If you are unsure about your `/<PATH>/<TO>/<NODE>`, then `cd` to your directory where you run your `<NODE>` from and run `pwd` command which returns the full path for you.
|
||||
|
||||
Once done, save the script and follow these steps:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
systemctl enable nym-network-requester.service
|
||||
systemctl start nym-network-requester.service
|
||||
|
||||
# you can always check your requester has succesfully started with:
|
||||
systemctl status nym-network-requester.service
|
||||
systemctl daemon-reload
|
||||
# to pickup the new unit file
|
||||
```
|
||||
* Put the above file onto your system at `/etc/systemd/system/nym-network-requester.service`.
|
||||
|
||||
Enable the newly created service:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
# for Mix Node
|
||||
systemctl enable nym-mixnode.service
|
||||
|
||||
# for Gateway
|
||||
systemctl enable nym-gateway.service
|
||||
|
||||
# for Network Requester
|
||||
systemctl enable nym-network-requester.service
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Start your `<NODE>` as a `systemd` service:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
# for Mix Node
|
||||
service nym-mixnode start
|
||||
|
||||
# for Gateway
|
||||
service nym-gateway start
|
||||
|
||||
# for Network Requester
|
||||
service nym-network-requester.service
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This will cause your `<NODE>` to start at system boot time. If you restart your machine, your `<NODE>` will come back up automatically.
|
||||
|
||||
You can monitor system logs of your node by running:
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
journalctl -f -u <NODE>.service
|
||||
# for example journalctl -f -u nym-mixnode.service
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Or check a status by running:
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
systemctl status <NODE>.service
|
||||
# for example systemctl status nym-mixnode.service
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can also do `service <NODE> stop` or `service <NODE> restart`.
|
||||

##### Following steps for Nym Mixnet nodes
|
||||
|
||||
Change the `<PATH>` in `ExecStart` to point at your `<NODE>` binary (`nym-mixnode`, `nym-gateway` or `nym-network-requester`), and the `<USER>` so it is the user you are running as.
|
||||
|
||||
If you have built nym in the `$HOME` directory on your server, and your username is `jetpanther`, then the start command for nym mixnode might look like this:
|
||||
|
||||
`ExecStart=/home/jetpanther/nym/target/release/nym-mixnode run --id <YOUR_ID>`. Basically, you want the full `/path/to/nym-mixnode run --id whatever-your-node-id-is`
|
||||
|
||||
Then run:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
systemctl daemon-reload # to pickup the new unit file
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
# for Mix Node
|
||||
systemctl enable nym-mixnode.service
|
||||
|
||||
# for Gateway
|
||||
systemctl enable nym-gateway.service
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Start your node:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
# for Mix Node
|
||||
service nym-mixnode start
|
||||
|
||||
# for Gateway
|
||||
service nym-gateway start
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This will cause your node to start at system boot time. If you restart your machine, the node will come back up automatically.
|
||||
|
||||
You can monitor system logs of your node by running:
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
journalctl -f -u <NODE>.service
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Or check a status by running:
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
systemctl status <NODE>.service
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can also do `service <NODE> stop` or `service <NODE> restart`.
|
||||
|
||||
Note: if you make any changes to your systemd script after you've enabled it, you will need to run:

||||

## Virtual IPs and hosting via Google & AWS
|
||||
|
||||
For true internet decentralization we encourage operators to use diverse VPS providers instead of the largest companies offering such services. If for some reasons you have already running AWS or Google and want to setup a `<NODE>` there, please read the following.
|
||||
|
||||
On some services (AWS, Google, etc) the machine's available bind address is not the same as the public IP address. In this case, bind `--host` to the local machine address returned by `$(curl ifconfig.me)`, but also specify `--announce-host` with the public IP. Please make sure that you pass the correct, routable `--announce-host`.
|
||||
On some services (AWS, Google, etc) the machine's available bind address is not the same as the public IP address. In this case, bind `--host` to the local machine address returned by `$(curl -4 https://ifconfig.me)`, but that may not the public IP address to bond your `<NODE>` in the wallet.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, on a Google machine, you may see the following output from the `ifconfig` command:
|
||||
You can run `ifconfig` command. For example, on a Google machine, you may see the following output:

@@ -625,20 +640,14 @@ ens4: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1460
|
||||
|
||||
The `ens4` interface has the IP `10.126.5.7`. But this isn't the public IP of the machine, it's the IP of the machine on Google's internal network. Google uses virtual routing, so the public IP of this machine is something else, maybe `36.68.243.18`.
|
||||
|
||||
`./nym-mixnode init --host 10.126.5.7`, initalises the Mix Node, but no packets will be routed because `10.126.5.7` is not on the public internet.
|
||||
To find the right IP configuration, contact your VPS provider for support to find the right public IP and use it to bond your `<NODE>` with the `nym-api` via Nym wallet.
|
||||
|
||||
Trying `nym-mixnode init --host 36.68.243.18`, you'll get back a startup error saying `AddrNotAvailable`. This is because the Mix Node doesn't know how to bind to a host that's not in the output of `ifconfig`.
|
||||
On self-hosted machine it's a bit more tricky. In that case as an operator you must be sure that your ISP allows for public IPv4 and IPv6 and then it may be a bit of playing around to find the right configuration. One way may be to bind your binary with the `--host` flag to local address `127.0.0.1` and run `echo "$(curl -4 https://ifconfig.me)"` to get a public address which you use to bond your Mix Node to `nym-api` via Nym wallet.
|
||||
|
||||
The right thing to do in this situation is to init with a command:
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
./nym-mixnode init --host 10.126.5.7 --announce-host 36.68.243.18
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This will bind the Mix Node to the available host `10.126.5.7`, but announce the Mix Node's public IP to the directory server as `36.68.243.18`. It's up to you as a node operator to ensure that your public and private IPs match up properly.
|
||||

||||

## Nym API (previously 'Validator API') endpoints
|
||||
|

Numerous API endpoints are documented on the Nym API (previously 'Validator API')'s [Swagger Documentation](https://validator.nymtech.net/api/swagger/index.html). There you can also try out various requests from your browser, and download the response from the API. Swagger will also show you what commands it is running, so that you can run these from an app or from your CLI if you prefer.
