Private Swarms and Private Gateway Domain #56
Comments
Not at all, private and otherwise-disjoint networks are an important part of the internet. Our systems must work with them.
Totally doable. A few points

Hi Juan, Thanks for the response! I am trying to get it behind my own domain, I do not want to use hosts workaround or mess with the URI structure. Yep I have deployed the inf but I think most of my problems at this point are AWS based, my docker containers seem to crash when I attempt to attach to them. But Ansible completes all OK on the gateway and ipfs and common runs, i'm ignoring cjdns and pinbot for now. I have a question regarding bootstrap nodes/peers, if I'm starting my own swarm there is going to be a chicken and egg scenario? It's not entirely clear what the purpose of the bootstrap nodes is, but I have modified the lists to just point to my (currently single) instance of solarnet. Required ingress public ports are 4001, 5001, 80, 443 and 8080 only? Thanks, |
Hmmm, maybe things are crashing because of some assumptions particular to our infra? not sure. Perhaps describe deeper what you're doing in an issue over at https://github.com/ipfs/support/
yep, no need for them usually.
it's the nodes your nodes will connect to on boot. all distributed systems have one main problem: how do you establish the first connections to some nodes in "the network"? The answer for everything, from dns to bitcoin to bittorrent to IPFS, is to keep a list of a few nodes with the clients. (e.g. the root TLDs, or the bootstrap peers here). So set the bootstrap nodes in the configs of all your private network nodes to bootstrap to your solarnet nodes.

yep, that's right. |
Yeah there was a bunch of stuff that was being assumed... I intend to go back and post my findings to support site for you when i get some time in a few days. Anyway i'd just like to post: http://planets.everywhere.avid.com/ipfs/Qmd54HbuifRurC6MsoGb4YmctMbirjLGMuUwPJDUhXQ48T It's certainly possible to produce an independent cluster on private domain with a private swarm with some work. |
