🔐SSH Remote AccessVPS Build Procedure
Creating your account on Hetzner is a simple process similar to all other SaaS model services. At the current time, we will leave this process up to you.
Type
Select x86 (Intel/AMD)
Once selected a table of resource types will populate. You may choose a resource name from the list that best meets the specs requirements for your type of validator node.
Hypergraph Hybrid Nodes
CPX51 is recommended
CX52 is also recommended is aviable
CPX41 may suffice however, you will run into disk space issues so be cautious.
Dor Data Layer 1 Nodes
CX22
CPX11
SSH Keys
Add SSH key
Copy and Paste your PUBLIC key to the provided box.
Follow this document Upload SSH Public Key.
If the Name field does not populate, create a name for the key that will help you identify it later.
Click the Add SSH key button.
Select your SSH key if not already checked.
Firewalls
Rest your mouse over the 🏠 button on the left side panel.
Choose Firewalls.
From the Inbound rules section, you should see a TCP ➡️ 22 rule.
Please refer to Wide Open SSH Access document for details on the security implications of allowing any system that is connected to the internet to have access to your SSH port. This document contains instructions on how to determine your local IP address for entry in this section.
If you decide to leave your SSH access wide open you can skip to the next step.
Click on Any IPv4 it will turn red, click the delete to remove it.
Click on Any IPv6 it will turn red, click the delete to remove it.
Type in the IP address you retrieved that is allocated to your local system into the same box to replace the Any IPv4 and Any IPv6 entries, and hit enter.
Replace the Add description with SSH
Hypergraph Validator Node Only
Dor data layer1 nodes do not use these port settings. Open these ports will offer attackers an open port to your VPS without a service listening on the inside. This is not recommended.
Repeat the previous step to add a rule for Layer0.
Ports 9000 and 9001.
Click on the Create Resource button.
Choose Servers.
Complete
You have successfully launched a Server instance on Hetzner, Congratulations!
You are now ready to continue to connect to your node for the first time, install nodectl and turn your VPS into a Constellation Network Validator Node!
