## How to test
## How to mine on P2Pool
Mainnet test has started! **PPLNS window = 2160 blocks, block time = 10 seconds**. This guide assumes that you run everything on the same machine. If it's not the case, change `127.0.0.1` to appropriate IP addresses for your setup. It's highly recommended to create a new mainnet wallet for testing because **wallet addresses are public on p2pool**.
This guide assumes that you run everything on the same machine. If it's not the case, change `127.0.0.1` to appropriate IP addresses for your setup. It's highly recommended to create a new mainnet wallet for testing because **wallet addresses are public on p2pool**.
**Wallet software compatible with p2pool payouts**
- Official Monero CLI and GUI v0.17.2.3 and newer
- Monerujo v2.1.0 "Vertant" and newer
- Cake Wallet v4.2.7 and newer
The purpose of this test is to bring as much hashrate as possible and check if stratum server works fine!
Step-by-step guide:
- Grab the latest source code for both p2pool and monerod and build them (see above, also notice that the branch name for monerod changed, you'll need to checkout p2pool-api-v0.17)
- Download binaries from https://github.com/SChernykh/p2pool/releases/latest
- Alternatively, grab the latest source code for both p2pool and monerod and build them (see above, also notice that the branch name for monerod changed, you'll need to checkout p2pool-api-v0.17)
- Prepare enough huge pages (each of monerod/p2pool/xmrig needs them): `sudo sysctl vm.nr_hugepages=3072`
- Create a separate restricted user account for testing. p2pool is untested and can have serious bugs/vulnerabilities!
- Get xmrig (linux-static-x64) binary from https://github.com/xmrig/xmrig/releases/latest

- Create a new mainnet wallet
- You have to use the primary wallet address for mining. Subaddresses and integrated addresses are not supported, just like with monerod solo mining
- Run `./monerod --zmq-pub tcp://127.0.0.1:18083` **don't forget --zmq-pub parameter in the command line**
- Double check that it shows **Monero 'Oxygen Orion' (v0.17.2.3-04bfd948a)** on startup. Wait until it's synchronized.
- Double check that it shows **Monero 'Oxygen Orion' (v0.17.2.3-7dbb0d1fc)** on startup. Wait until it's synchronized.
- Run `./p2pool --host 127.0.0.1 --wallet YOUR_WALLET_ADDRESS`
- Keep both monerod and p2pool running for the whole duration of your test
- p2pool has _very_ verbose logging by default, it will spam a lot, no I mean A LOT in both console and in p2pool.log. Logs help testing immensely!
