can bitcoin core (testnet) automatically point miners to a specific address

[a_games]

i'd like to know if there's a way to make bitcoin core running on testnet to automatically point miners to my testnet address instead of having to manually do it on each miner.

no idea if this is the correct format for anything, as it is my first time posting here

In Bitcoin Core, there's no known mining related RPC or command line option that can set a dedicated address of any ASICs.
The general setup is you have to do it in each miners's configurations, and you only have to do this once in most ASICs.

But you haven't explained your setup even a bit so there's no telling on what it's capable of.
Like: which miners (old/new ASICs model), solo mining or pool mining? Etc.

Also, this thread may be moved to the appropriate mining board (link).
Or you can do it yourself using the "move topic" button on the lower-left side of the screen.

If you want to set up a miner and only point to one address then you need to run a pool if you already have a full node testnet you can setup your testnet node with stratum pool.

There are two open-source pools that you can use Yiimp and CKpool for solo mining you just need to configure it a bit for testnet.

Here's the two source

How would your bitcoin core "control" your miners and point them to whichever server you want? it's the mining software that does that, what mining software are you using? all most all known mining software can be batch configured by tools available for free or you can batch configure them using SSH, what miners are you using and what is your setup?

i was going to run an s9 on it, so somewhat old hardware but running with braiins os

i meant that the asic would point at the bitcoin core node which then changes a few things or something
i know how it works now (i think)
so ill try using the 2 pools BitMaxz
