Deploy a node

Deploying a node entails provisioning a node via the platform and then installing it in your environment of choice.

Provision a node

To deploy a self-hosted node, begin with provisioning one in the platform:

1. Visit https://app.tenzir.com/pipelines.
2. Click the Add node button in the left pane and select self-hosted node.
3. Enter a name for your node and click Add node.

Accepting incoming connections

When your node starts it will listen for node-to-node connections on the TCP endpoint 127.0.0.1:5158. Select a different endpoint via the tenzir.endpoint option. For example, to bind to an IPv6 address use [::1]:42000.

Set tenzir.endpoint to false to disable the endpoint, making the node exclusively accessible through the Tenzir Platform. This effectively prevents connections from other tenzir or tenzir-node processes.
