Requirements

System Configuration

{% hint style="info" %} These are the minimum requirements for running a Sei node. Due to the nature of the chain being extremely fast, you may see your node fall behind otherwise. {% endhint %}

Commonly used ports​

Seid uses the following TCP ports. Toggle their settings to match your environment.

  • 26656: The default port for the P2P protocol. This port is used to communicate with other nodes and must be open to join a network. However, it does not have to be open to the public. For validator nodes, configuring persistent_peers and closing this port to the public are recommended.

Additional ports:

  • 1317: The default port for interacting with the Seid API server for HTTP RESTful requests. This allows applications and services to interact with the Seid instance through RPC.
  • 26660: The default port for interacting with the Prometheus database, which can be used to monitor the environment. In the default configuration, this port is not open.
  • 26657: The default port for the RPC protocol. Because this port is used for querying and sending transactions, it must be open for serving queries from Seid.

These ports are all customizable in ~/.sei/config/config.toml and ~/.sei/config/app/toml discussed in the later sections along with other fields.
