What’s the proper syntax for the peer setting? I tried “–maxpeers 10” but got an error saying 10 is an unknown command. Does it need to be --maxpeers=10 or --maxpeers “10”? The docs are a little vague on proper syntax for this.
EDIT: Tried using the --maxpeers=10 format and get an error that looks like this:
ERROR[01-02|04:57:46.082] Unavailable modules in HTTP API list unavailable="[maxpeers=10]" available="[admin debug web3 eth txpool personal ethash miner net]"
Anyone got an example of how to set the maxpeers from withing the DAppNode UI?
I think I figured out the proper syntax for anyone else looking at this. The trick is to add the maxpeers arg after the existing args without a comma like this:
--rpcapi eth,net,web3,txpool --maxpeers 7
The default peer limit is 50 for Geth and this is eating up bandwidth at an insane rate of 30+GB per day. Hoping that reducing the number of peers will slow data usage.
Can you report your any issues with it now?
