# Author : Gaston Gonzalez # Date : 14 June 2026 # Blueprint : Local network only # Purpose : This configuration is a blueprint for running a node that # only interacts with other nodes on the local Ethernet or # Wi-Fi. [reticulum] # If you enable Transport, your system will route traffic # for other peers, pass announces and serve path requests. # This should only be done for systems that are suited to # act as transport nodes, ie. if they are stationary and # always-on. This directive is optional and can be removed # for brevity. enable_transport = False # By default, the first program to launch the Reticulum # Network Stack will create a shared instance, that other # programs can communicate with. Only the shared instance # opens all the configured interfaces directly, and other # local programs communicate with the shared instance over # a local socket. This is completely transparent to the # user, and should generally be turned on. This directive # is optional and can be removed for brevity. share_instance = Yes # If you want to run multiple *different* shared instances # on the same system, you will need to specify different # instance names for each. On platforms supporting domain # sockets, this can be done with the instance_name option: instance_name = default # Some platforms don't support domain sockets, and if that # is the case, you can isolate different instances by # specifying a unique set of ports for each: # shared_instance_port = 37428 # instance_control_port = 37429 # If you want to explicitly use TCP for shared instance # communication, instead of domain sockets, this is also # possible, by using the following option: # shared_instance_type = tcp # You can configure whether Reticulum should discover # available interfaces from other Transport Instances over # the network. If this option is enabled, Reticulum will # collect interface information discovered from the network. # discover_interfaces = No # You can configure Reticulum to panic and forcibly close # if an unrecoverable interface error occurs, such as the # hardware device for an interface disappearing. This is # an optional directive, and can be left out for brevity. # This behaviour is disabled by default. # panic_on_interface_error = No # If you're connecting to a large external network, you # can use one or more external blackhole list to block # spammy and excessive announces onto your network. This # funtionality is especially useful if you're hosting public # entrypoints or gateways. The list source below provides a # functional example, but better, more timely maintained # lists probably exist in the community. # blackhole_sources = 521c87a83afb8f29e4455e77930b973b [logging] # Valid log levels are 0 through 7: # 0: Log only critical information # 1: Log errors and lower log levels # 2: Log warnings and lower log levels # 3: Log notices and lower log levels # 4: Log info and lower (this is the default) # 5: Verbose logging # 6: Debug logging # 7: Extreme logging loglevel = 4 # The interfaces section defines the physical and virtual # interfaces Reticulum will use to communicate on. This # section will contain examples for a variety of interface # types. You can modify these or use them as a basis for # your own config, or simply remove the unused ones. [interfaces] # This interface enables communication with other # link-local Reticulum nodes over UDP. It does not # need any functional IP infrastructure like routers # or DHCP servers, but will require that at least link- # local IPv6 is enabled in your operating system, which # should be enabled by default in almost any OS. See # the Reticulum Manual for more configuration options. [[Default Interface]] type = AutoInterface enabled = Yes
