Connect to main chain

In this page, we will describe the steps of connecting a Service Chain to the Main Chain.

EN Configuration - Enable Main-bridge

You should enable main-bridge by configuring kend.conf.

Update the Configuration File

The kend.conf contains the following main-bridge properties.

NameDescription
MAIN_BRIDGEEnable bridge service as main bridge for service chain. 1 to enable.
MAIN_BRIDGE_PORTBridge listen port. Default: 50505
MAIN_BRIDGE_INDEXINGEnable indexing of service chain transaction hash for fast access to the service chain data. 1 to enable.

To enable main-bridge on EN, you should do like below.

  • define MAIN_BRIDGE
  • enable RPC/WS.
  • add mainbridge API for RPC like the below example.

# Configuration file for the kend
...
# rpc options setting
RPC_ENABLE=1 # if this is set, the following options will be used
RPC_API="klay,mainbridge" # available apis: admin,debug,klay,miner,net,personal,rpc,txpool,web3,mainbridge,subbridge
RPC_PORT=8551
RPC_ADDR="0.0.0.0"
RPC_CORSDOMAIN="*"
RPC_VHOSTS="*"
# ws options setting
WS_ENABLE=1 # if this is set, the following options will be used
WS_API="klay"
WS_ADDR="0.0.0.0"
WS_PORT=8552
WS_ORIGINS="*"
...
# service chain options setting
MAIN_BRIDGE=1
MAIN_BRIDGE_PORT=50505
MAIN_BRIDGE_INDEXING=1
...

Connect SCN to the Main Chain

You need to run an EN of the main chain as a main-bridge. And also you should determine which SCN (Service Chain Consensus Node) as a sub-bridge will connect with the EN.

Check EN (Main-Bridge) information

Open EN Console

There are different ways to attach to the EN process. You can check the usable commands on ken CLI commands. This page explains the way to attach to the process via IPC (inter-process communication). The IPC file klay.ipc is located in the DATA_DIR path on the node.

Please execute the following command and check out the result. (If you added mainbridge API for RPC, you can check the bridge API like below. If there is no mainbridge API, you should check EN Configuration - Enable Main-bridge again. )


$ ken attach --datadir ~/kend_home
Welcome to the Kaia JavaScript console!

modules: admin:1.0 mainbridge:1.0 debug:1.0 istanbul:1.0 klay:1.0 miner:1.0 net:1.0 personal:1.0 rpc:1.0 txpool:1.0
>

Get the EN's KNI

After attaching to the process via IPC, you can check the EN's main-bridge KNI like below. You can refer to Service Chain API.


> mainbridge.nodeInfo
{
kni: "kni://08b99d2297e0a27ddeb33f3a81b59ea1c065b9adbaff9fefab0d16f65b1a8db22939a104c24447e9aca521c158922ca912476b544baf48995a382d88886e0a37@[::]:50505?discport=0",

}
}
}

You should take note of the main-bridge kni.

Connect to the Main Chain

Open SCN Console

Attach to the SCN process like below. You should have enabled subbridge API for RPC, you can find the subbridge module in the output. If there is no subbridge API, you should check Configuration of the SCN again.


$ kscn attach --datadir ~/kscnd_home
Welcome to the Kaia JavaScript console!
instance: Kaia/vX.X.X/XXXX-XXXX/goX.X.X
datadir: ~/kscnd_home
modules: admin:1.0 subbridge:1.0 debug:1.0 governance:1.0 istanbul:1.0 klay:1.0 miner:1.0 net:1.0 personal:1.0 rpc:1.0 servicechain:1.0 txpool:1.0
>

Connect SCN with EN

You can add the EN peer on SCN via IPC like below. The kni is EN's KNI which you noted previously.


> subbridge.addPeer("kni://08b99d2297e0a27ddeb33f3a81b59ea1c065b9adbaff9fefab0d16f65b1a8db22939a104c24447e9aca521c158922ca912476b544baf48995a382d88886e0a37@[::]:50505?discport=0")
true

And then you can check the connected peers like below.


> subbridge.peers
