Networks¶
By default Nethermind launches with mainnet network configuration but you can sync any of the below networks by adding a command line switch:
--config name_of_the_network
Network name can be any of the following
- mainnet
- rinkeby
- goerli
- ropsten
Mainnet¶
This is the main public Ethereum network secured by the ethash PoW algorithm.
Nethermind.Runner --config mainnet
Görli (goerli)¶
This is a Clique-PoA based testnet supported by all major clients. It has a 15 seconds delay between blocks that are sealed by Goerli validators.
Nethermind.Runner --config goerli
Ropsten¶
This is a test network secured by ethash PoW algorithm which resembles mainnet most closely but is prone to hashrate-based attacks.
Nethermind.Runner --config ropsten
Rinkeby¶
This is a Clique-PoA based testnet supported by Geth and Nethermind. It has a 15 seconds delay between blocks.
Nethermind.Runner --config rinkeby
