DigiByte Port Tester

Use this tool to check that other nodes can find your DigiByte Node. If you need help configuring port forwarding on your router, go here. The address field will accept IPv4, IPv6 and .onion addresses. If the port test fails with your node's IPv6 address, try the IPv4 address. This port tester is also built into DigNode Tools and can be run from the DigiNode Dashboard.

Important: After a successful port test the result is cached for 60 minutes. This is to avoid spamming the node and putting unnecessary strain on the server. Wait an hour to re-test the same node. Similarly, each unsuccessful port test is cached for 60 seconds, after which you are able to retry.

Using the Port Tester from the terminal

You can run this port tester from the Linux command line. These instructions are for Ubuntu/Debian.

Install jq and curl. jq will format the JSON so it is easier to read:

sudo apt update && sudo apt install -y curl jq

Run a port test:

curl -sSL "porttest.diginode.tools?network=mainnet&ip=123.123.123.123&port=12025" | jq

Customize your query:

• network=mainnet/testnet/regtest - choose the network you are testing
• ip=123.123.123.123 - can be an IPv4, IPv6 or .onion address
• port=12024 - the port to your DigiByte Node
