Run a node

Pair your node

A new node belongs to nobody. Pairing links it to your account with one 8-character code.

Find the code

A node that is not paired yet prints a pairing code in its log:

Linux shell
sudo docker logs hopbits-agent

Look for the line that says PAIRING CODE.

Enter it

  1. Open the operator dashboard

    Sign in and go to the dashboard. No account yet? Create one first.

  2. Type the code

    Find Pair with 8-character code, type the code, and press Pair node.

A code is valid for 15 minutes. Always use the newest one in the log.

After pairing

The node shows up under Connected nodes with its ID, its kind (residential or datacenter), its location and its hours online today. A new node is marked as verifying at first. One account can pair up to 20 connected nodes.
