Node Monitoring
The My Nodes dashboard provides real-time visibility into your registered nodes, their status, and verification history.
Accessing the Dashboard
Navigate to the FlameWire application and sign in to access your nodes:
Node Information
Each registered node is displayed as a card showing the following information:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Region | Geographic location of your node: US (United States), EU (Europe), or AS (Asia) |
| Status | Current operational status of the node |
| Node URL | The WebSocket endpoint (ws:// or wss://) used for RPC connections |
| IP Address | The public IP address of your node |
| Hotkey | Your Bittensor hotkey address associated with the node |
| Peer ID | Unique identifier for your node on the P2P network |
| Created | Date when the node was registered on FlameWire |
| Verified | Timestamp of when the Peer ID was last verified |
Node Statuses
Your node can have one of the following statuses, each indicating its current operational state:
Healthy
Node is operating normally and passing all verification checks. This is the optimal status — your node is actively receiving RPC traffic and earning rewards.
Testing
Node is currently undergoing data integrity verification. FlameWire infrastructure is checking that your node returns correct blockchain data.
Benchmarking
Node performance is being measured. This includes measuring how many requests per second your node can serve within a comfort range, as well as latency measurements.
Suspect
Node has failed 1 data integrity check. This is a warning state — verify your node is fully synced and returning correct data.
Action Required
Unreachable
Node is not responding to health checks. Common causes include:
- Node is offline or crashed
- Firewall blocking incoming connections
- Ports 9944 or 30333 not accessible
- Network connectivity issues
Malicious
Node has failed 3 consecutive data integrity checks. This status indicates the node is returning incorrect or manipulated data and will not receive RPC requests.
Severe Penalty
Compromised
This status is triggered when:
- Node has changed its Peer ID unexpectedly, or
- Node has not responded for more than 2 hours
A Peer ID change may indicate the node was reinstalled or tampered with.
Deregistered
The associated neuron was deregistered from the Bittensor network. This node is no longer part of the FlameWire subnet.
Status Summary
| Status | Meaning | Receives Requests |
|---|---|---|
| Healthy | Operating normally | Yes |
| Testing | Data integrity verification in progress | No |
| Benchmarking | Performance measurement in progress | No |
| Suspect | Failed 1 data integrity check | No |
| Unreachable | Not responding to health checks | No |
| Malicious | Failed 3 consecutive integrity checks | No |
| Compromised | Peer ID changed or offline for 2+ hours | No |
| Deregistered | Neuron deregistered from network | No |
Verification Cycle
FlameWire continuously monitors registered nodes through automated verification cycles:
- Health checks — Regular connectivity tests to ensure your node is reachable
- Data integrity tests — Infrastructure queries historical blockchain data and compares responses
- Performance benchmarks — Measures requests per second capacity and latency within a comfort range
The Verified timestamp on your node card shows when the Peer ID was last verified.
