Testnets how to configure

Hello there, i have a question i have used the tutorial from coin cashew but on my block producer node it shows as a relay, instead of core. can someone point me the way to show my block producer node as core instead of relay. I know you have to change the parameters from mainnet to `–testnet-magic 1097911063, but still it shows my block producer as a relay instead of CORE.

Hi!

Please give the link of the guide you followed how to start a block producing node

Taken from coin cashew

there is an incorrect instruction at Guide: How to build a Cardano Stake Pool - CoinCashew

check how to run a block producing node in the official doc:
https://docs.cardano.org/projects/cardano-node/en/latest/stake-pool-operations/start_your_nodes.html

cardano-node run \
--topology mainnet-topology.json \
--database-path /db \
--socket-path /db/node.socket \
--host-addr <PUBLIC IP> \
--port <PORT> \
--config mainnet-config.json \
--shelley-kes-key kes.skey \
--shelley-vrf-key vrf.skey \
--shelley-operational-certificate node.cert

thank you for listing this i will try this.

@Denereum Did this work?

@babylon that is the only way a block producer node can work
