System Requirements
Erigon 🦦 Lighthouse 🕯️
Official Docs https://erigon.gitbook.io/
Pre-requisites
Update, upgrade, and clean the system, and then firewall management (ufw), Docker, and the Git version control system.
Copy sudo apt update -y && sudo apt upgrade -y && sudo apt auto-remove -y
sudo apt install docker.io docker-compose git ufw -y
Set explicit default UFW rules
Copy sudo ufw default deny incoming
sudo ufw default allow outgoing
Allow SSH, HTTP and HTTPS
Copy sudo ufw allow 22/tcp
sudo ufw allow 80
sudo ufw allow 443
Get the IP address of the host machine, you can use the following command in a terminal or command prompt
Set an A record for a domain, you need to access the domain's DNS settings and create an A record that points to the IP address of the host machine. This configuration allows users to reach your domain by resolving the domain name to the specific IP address associated with your host machine.
Create Erigon directory
The first command, mkdir erigon
, will create a new directory named erigon in the current location. The second command, cd erigon
, will change your current working directory to the newly created erigon directory. Now you are inside the erigon directory and can start storing docker-compose and related files in it.
Copy mkdir erigon
cd erigon
Generate JWT token
Generate a 32-byte random hexadecimal value using OpenSSL, removes any newline characters, and then save the result into the file "jwt.hex" located in the erigon directory.
Copy openssl rand -hex 32 | tr -d "\n" > "./jwt.hex"
Create .env file
Paste the following into the file.
Copy EMAIL = { YOUR_EMAIL} #Your email to receive SSL renewal emails
DOMAIN = { YOUR_DOMAIN} #Domain of your reth node you set earlier, reth.indexerdao.com
WHITELIST = { YOUR_REMOTE_MACHINE_IP} # Remote IP's allowed to connect to RPC

Monitor Logs
Use docker logs
to monitor your erigon and lighthouse nodes. The -f
flag ensures you are following the log output
Copy docker logs erigon -f
docker logs lighthouse -f
Test Erigon RPC 🧪
Erigon and Consensus client must be synced before testing.
Copy curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_getBlockByNumber","params":["0x1", true],"id":1}' http://{DOMAIN}/eth-mainnet
This should be your result.
Copy {"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"result":{"difficulty":"0x3ff800000","extraData":"0x476574682f76312e302e302f6c696e75782f676f312e342e32","gasLimit":"0x1388","gasUsed":"0x0","hash":"0x88e96d4537bea4d9c05d12549907b32561d3bf31f45aae734cdc119f13406cb6","logsBloom":"0x00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000","miner":"0x05a56e2d52c817161883f50c441c3228cfe54d9f","mixHash":"0x969b900de27b6ac6a67742365dd65f55a0526c41fd18e1b16f1a1215c2e66f59","nonce":"0x539bd4979fef1ec4","number":"0x1","parentHash":"0xd4e56740f876aef8c010b86a40d5f56745a118d0906a34e69aec8c0db1cb8fa3","receiptsRoot":"0x56e81f171bcc55a6ff8345e692c0f86e5b48e01b996cadc001622fb5e363b421","sha3Uncles":"0x1dcc4de8dec75d7aab85b567b6ccd41ad312451b948a7413f0a142fd40d49347","size":"0x219","stateRoot":"0xd67e4d450343046425ae4271474353857ab860dbc0a1dde64b41b5cd3a532bf3","timestamp":"0x55ba4224","totalDifficulty":"0x7ff800000","transactions":[],"transactionsRoot":"0x56e81f171bcc55a6ff8345e692c0f86e5b48e01b996cadc001622fb5e363b421","uncles":[]}}
