🧪Testnet (Goerli)

While the Dappnode machines have a large enough SSD to hold both Mainnet and Testnet Ethereum chains, you will have lower performance if you try to run both chains simultaneously.

If you are already running a Mainnet chain, it is best to pause those packages if you want to use a Testnet chain (e.g. Goerli). If you are running a Mainnet validator, pausing the Mainnet chain will stop that validator from performing its duties!

Once you have your Dappnode machine set up, the next step is to install the Goerli Testnet packages and begin syncing the chain.

Install Testnet Validator Clients

Navigate to the Stakers menu and select the Prater tab.

Select one Execution Client, one Consensus Client, and optionally MEV Boost.
