Why do we need the topology updater?

Staking & Delegation Operate a Stake Pool

  • cnode-tu-push.service : pushes a node alive message to Topology Updater API

Basically the topology updater script role is to send each hour a keep alive message, this way your node will be declared online and it will be added to the main topology table

Optionals are:

  • restart the node
  • fetch a new topology file, etc

This will be change soon when the P2P protocol will be released
