Requirements

To run a local bloXroute Gateway and connect to the BDN, your environment must meet certain requirements. This section covers client compatibility and all prerequisites to get you ready.

Access Requirements

To run a Gateway, you’ll need:

• Access to the bloXroute Certificate Portal

• A server or instance running a supported blockchain node (or use bloXroute’s remote node option)

When planning your infrastructure, you can refer to our BDN Explorer for insight into network locations.

Client Setup

Gateway should support latest client version by default. If any issues please contact support.
