Shutting down…

any advice?

2

first of all replace this IP with 0.0.0.0
–host-addr 5.146.194.217

3

also make sure you have port 3001 open on your firewall settings

4

hi thanks that works. could you just give me a short explanation why? in the course its specificly asked to set your puplic ip. or is this for AWS only and not for VM UBuntu?

you will provide your server ip addresses in the topology files so your VWs can connect to each other, it isn’t needed for the node connection itself.
