Command to Run

 Once in the rusty-kaspa directory, you can run the node with the following command for mainnet and RPC enabled (listening on all interfaces)

bash

cargo run --release --bin kaspad -- --utxoindex --rpclisten=0.0.0.0:16110 --rpclisten-borsh=0.0.0.0:17110

 Key command-line arguments:

cargo run --release --bin kaspad

 This builds and runs the kaspad binary in release mode.

--utxoindex

 Required for wallet functionality and certain RPC calls.

--rpclisten=0.0.0.0:16110

 This tells the node to listen for standard JSON RPC connections on port 16110 from any IP address (0.0.0.0).

 You can change

 0.0.0.0

 to 

127.0.0.1 

if you only want to allow local connections.

--rpclisten-borsh=0.0.0.0:17110

 This enables the high-performance Borsh-encoded RPC on port 17110.

Additional Options

For testnet, add the

 --testnet

 flag.

 

For more RPC options and configurations, consult the GitHub repository documentation or the Kaspa WIKI. 

Note:

 Ensure you have the necessary firewall rules or port forwarding set up if you want the RPC port to be accessible from outside your local network.
