Iris Gateway

The Iris gateway acts as a bridge between your Iris node and the Marlin relay network, enabling them to understand and talk to each other. In addition, it handles most of the Marlin related interactions for you like optimizing peer sets, attesting messages, generating tickets, etc.

Quickstart

This section assumes that marlinctl is installed already. See here if you have not installed it.

Step 1: Generate a client identity for the gateway by running the below command and entering a passphrase when prompted

sudo marlinctl gateway iris keystore create

Step 2: Create the gateway

sudo marlinctl gateway iris create --bootstrap-addr "18.144.140.68:8002"

Step 3: Retrieve the iris node identity of the gateway by checking keyfile configuration (the alphanumeric NodeID would most likely be different for you).

INFO Keyfile information
 Key     Value                                    
 NodeId  cd276853b1c116f5bf8900b72694fb022800d276

Step 4: Add the gateway as a persistent peer to your iris node by adding NodeID@SYSTEM-IP:21900 (example [email protected]:21900 ) in file ~/.gaia/config/config.toml and restarting the Iris node.

That's it!
