Installation Guide for Ubuntu Node v1.0
  1. Setting up the Node: Open your terminal and navigate to the directory containing ubuntu-node-v1.0.tar using the command: cd “YOUR PATH CONTAINS .tar FILE”/ubuntu-node-v1.0.tar

  2. Extract the tar file by executing: tar -xf ubuntu-node-v1.0.tar This command creates a directory named ubuntu-node.

  3. Change to the ubuntu-node directory: cd ubuntu-node

    • To start the node, run the following command: sudo bash manager.sh up

    • Wait for the terminal to display node is ready, indicating that the node has successfully started.

  4. Accessing the Dashboard: If the Ubuntu system has a desktop environment, you can access the dashboard directly through Firefox at: https://account.network3.ai/main

    1. To view the dashboard from another machine, assume the IP address of the Ubuntu machine is xx.xx.xx.xx. Open a browser on the other machine and visit: https://account.network3.ai/main?o=xx.xx.xx.xx:8080

    2. This URL provides access to the Ubuntu node's dashboard.

  5. Stopping the Service: To stop the node, navigate back to the ubuntu-node directory where you initially set up the node and run: sudo bash manager.sh down

NOTICE:

What needs to be explained here is that this xx.xx.xx.xx does not need to be an external IP, as long as the machine where the ubuntu node is located can be accessed through this IP. Of course port 8080 needs to be open to allow access from other machines.

Use this command to test the connection: ping xx.xx.xx.xx:8080
