If you run a `nym-node` for the first time, you will need to specify a few parameters, please read the section [Essential Parameters & Variables](#essential-paramteters--varibles) before you start and make sure that your `nym-node` is up to date with the [latest version](https://github.com/nymtech/nym/releases/).
|
|
|
|
**Initialise and Run:**
|
|
|
|
To initialise and run your node, use this command:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
./nym-node run --mode mixnode --public-ips "$(curl -4 https://ifconfig.me)" --accept-operator-terms-and-conditions
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Init only**
|
|
|
|
Adding `--init-only` option results in `nym-node` initialising a configuration file `config.toml` without running - a good option for an initial node setup. Remember that if you using this flag on a node which already has a config file, this will not over-write the values, unless used with a specified flag `--write-changes` (`-w`) - a good option for introducing changes to your `config.toml` file.
|
|
|
|
Initialise only with a custom `--id` and `--init-only` command:
|
|
```sh
|
|
./nym-node run --mode mixnode --id <ID> --init-only --public-ips "$(curl -4 https://ifconfig.me)" --accept-operator-terms-and-conditions
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you prefer to have a generic local identifier set to `default-nym-node`, skip `--id` option.
|
|
|
|
**Deny init**
|
|
|
|
`--deny-init` was introduced as an additional safety for migration from legacy binaries to `nym-node` to prevent operators initialise over existing nodes. For most of the operators, this flag is not needed.
|
|
|
|
In this example we run the node with custom `--id` without initialising, using `--deny-init` command:
|
|
```sh
|
|
./nym-node run --mode mixnode --id <ID> --deny-init --accept-operator-terms-and-conditions
|
|
```
|
|
