Docker and docker-compose are prerequisites to download and run the docker images and container.

Enter the following commands to download and install docker.

sudo apt update && sudo apt install apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl software-properties-common -y && curl -fsSL

Step 2: Pull the Image From Docker Hub

Enter the following command into the terminal to pull the BelNet Exit Node image from the docker hub.

docker pull beldex/belnet-exitnode:v1

Step 3: Download & Compose yml File

Enter the following command to get the BelNet yml file from Beldex deb.

sudo apt install wget && wget 
https://deb.beldex.io/Beldex-projects/Belnet/docker-compose.yml

Step 4: To Run Container

docker-compose up -d

Step 5: Login Into Container

Enter the following command to get the container ID and other details.

docker ps

Enter the following command after replacing your container ID in place of <container -id>

docker exec -it <container -id> bash

Step 6: To View Exit Node Address

Your exit node is now live. Get your exit node’s BelNet address using the following command.

host -t cname localhost.bdx 127.3.2.1
