Fullnode Sync over Lan

[DaReaLDeviL]

Hi,

if I have a fullnode already running (over Tor) and want to setup a new one (also with TOR) in the same local LAN - will they see each other and sync faster with a direct connection or will all traffic only go over the ISP?

Greetings!

Why don't you just copy the files and restart the node afterwards?

IMO, the difference between synchronizing across your LAN and the network's nodes would be negligible. In fact, synchronizing over your LAN would yield a worse result. You can only synchronize with one peer at any given point of time if you were to use your other LAN node as opposed to getting the blocks from several peers simultaneously.

Without considering the download speed, your synchronization could still be slow with the main bottleneck being the parsing and verification of the blocks.  Following Loyce's advice would expedite the whole process and make it less complicated.

Thank you all for the response - it is here not a mather of how it's best done. I just wanna now if it's possible and how.

Yes possible.

Not advisable though.

Do as Loyce says or if you want to do it the way ETF said make sure you don't have your IP binded to the other node.

I tried something similar between two separate VPS, one hosted on Alibaba and the other on AWS.

Keep onlynet=onion since it'll controll outgoing connections while fixing/removing the bind will take care of incoming connections.

New local node on the syncing side can be configured as :

Code:

txindex=1
connect=192.168.0.xxx:PORT
daemon=1
debug=mempool
