Startup plans

LiveTestnet

A signed plan to start an ngSol node and catch it up: which archive or image, which mirror, expected hashes, worker settings and time and disk estimates.

Included in: Recovery, Pro, Operator, Validator Ops (every size), Fast start.

Each answer is signed by its own service key, listed in /attest/keys.json.

Endpoints

Served from http://186.233.184.235:8080. Send a key as Authorization: Bearer psol_…. Indexes and status files need no key.

  • /plan?cluster=mainnet-beta&bandwidth_mbps=<n>&disk_free_gb=<n>
  • POST /plan
  • /plan/status.json
curl -fsS -H "Authorization: Bearer psol_…" "http://186.233.184.235:8080/plan?cluster=mainnet-beta&bandwidth_mbps=1000&disk_free_gb=2000"

Testnet

Free without a key under http://186.233.184.235:8080/testnet; testnet never counts against a plan or mainnet’s free tier. On its gated paths a key sent anyway is checked and served at testnet’s free limits, never charged; an unknown or revoked key gets 401.

  • /testnet/plan?cluster=testnet&bandwidth_mbps=<n>&disk_free_gb=<n>tn_data
  • POST /testnet/plantn_data
  • /testnet/plan/status.jsonungated
  • tn_data (Testnet views and planners): 5 requests a second, bursts of 10; 2 connections per address, without a key
  • The paths marked ungated answer with no testnet group’s limits.
  • Its testnet statements are signed by testnet keys, listed in /testnet/attest/keys.json; never check them against mainnet’s /attest/keys.json.
