Configuring P2P on FUNC

This guide details how to configure Peer-to-peer (P2P) networking when using the FUNC node controller.

There are three different P2P configuration modes:

P2P networking is disabled and your node will only connect to Permissioned Repeaters.

Choose this mode if you have strict bandwidth constraints.

Assuming FUNC is already installed, open the FUNC app, click Manage->Configure, and ensure both checkboxes are toggled off:

Disabling P2P

P2P networking is enabled and your node will connect to both Permissionless Repeaters and Permissioned Repeaters.

Choose this mode if you have flexible bandwidth constraints. This mode will also result in the greatest resiliency by connecting to both P2P and non-P2P networks.

Assuming FUNC is already installed, open the FUNC app, click Manage->Configure, and ensure the “Enable P2P Hybrid Mode” checkbox is toggled on:

Enabling P2P in Hybrid mode

P2P networking is enabled and your node will connect to only Permissionless Repeaters and validators.

Choose this mode if you have very high bandwidth constraints and are able to closely monitor your usage.

Assuming FUNC is already installed, open the FUNC app, click Manage->Configure, and ensure the “Enable P2P Mode” checkbox is toggled on:

Enabling P2P (Non-hybrid mode)
