# VMID 2400 Cloudflare Tunnel - Next Steps **Status**: ✅ Cloudflared Installed and Running **Tunnel ID**: `26138c21-db00-4a02-95db-ec75c07bda5b` **Date**: 2026-01-02 --- ## ✅ Completed - ✅ Cloudflared installed on VMID 2400 - ✅ Tunnel service running and connected - ✅ Tunnel ID: `26138c21-db00-4a02-95db-ec75c07bda5b` --- ## 📋 Next Steps ### Step 1: Configure Tunnel Route in Cloudflare Dashboard 1. **Go to Cloudflare Dashboard**: - URL: https://one.dash.cloudflare.com/ - Login to your Cloudflare account 2. **Navigate to Tunnels**: - Click: **Zero Trust** (left sidebar) - Click: **Networks** → **Tunnels** 3. **Select Your Tunnel**: - Find tunnel: `26138c21-db00-4a02-95db-ec75c07bda5b` - Click on the tunnel name 4. **Configure Public Hostname**: - Click: **Configure** button - Go to: **Public Hostname** tab - Click: **Add a public hostname** 5. **Configure Route**: ``` Subdomain: rpc.public-0138 Domain: defi-oracle.io Service Type: HTTP URL: http://127.0.0.1:8545 ``` - Click: **Save hostname** --- ### Step 2: Configure DNS Record 1. **Navigate to DNS**: - In Cloudflare Dashboard, go to your account overview - Select domain: **defi-oracle.io** - Click: **DNS** (left sidebar) - Click: **Records** 2. **Add CNAME Record**: - Click: **Add record** 3. **Configure Record**: ``` Type: CNAME Name: rpc.public-0138 Target: 26138c21-db00-4a02-95db-ec75c07bda5b.cfargotunnel.com Proxy: 🟠 Proxied (orange cloud) - IMPORTANT! TTL: Auto ``` 4. **Save**: - Click: **Save** - Wait 1-2 minutes for DNS propagation --- ### Step 3: Verify Setup #### 3.1 Check Tunnel Status in Dashboard 1. Go to: **Zero Trust** → **Networks** → **Tunnels** 2. Click on your tunnel 3. Status should show: **Healthy** (green) 4. You should see the hostname `rpc.public-0138.defi-oracle.io` listed #### 3.2 Test DNS Resolution ```bash # Test DNS resolution (full FQDN) dig rpc.public-0138.defi-oracle.io nslookup rpc.public-0138.defi-oracle.io # Test DNS resolution (short alias) dig rpc.defi-oracle.io nslookup rpc.defi-oracle.io # Should resolve to Cloudflare IPs (if proxied) ``` #### 3.3 Test RPC Endpoint ```bash # Test HTTP RPC endpoint (full FQDN) curl -k https://rpc.public-0138.defi-oracle.io \ -X POST \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_blockNumber","params":[],"id":1}' # Test HTTP RPC endpoint (short alias) curl -k https://rpc.defi-oracle.io \ -X POST \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_blockNumber","params":[],"id":1}' # Expected: JSON response with block number (both should work identically) ``` #### 3.4 Verify Besu RPC is Running ```bash # Check Besu RPC service on VMID 2400 ssh root@192.168.11.10 "pct exec 2400 -- systemctl status besu-rpc" # Test Besu RPC locally (inside container) ssh root@192.168.11.10 "pct exec 2400 -- curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:8545 \ -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \ -d '{\"jsonrpc\":\"2.0\",\"method\":\"eth_blockNumber\",\"params\":[],\"id\":1}'" ``` --- ## 📝 Quick Reference **Tunnel ID**: `26138c21-db00-4a02-95db-ec75c07bda5b` **CNAME Target**: `26138c21-db00-4a02-95db-ec75c07bda5b.cfargotunnel.com` **FQDN**: `rpc.public-0138.defi-oracle.io` **Short Alias**: `rpc.defi-oracle.io` **DNS Structure**: `rpc` → `rpc.public-0138` → `tunnel endpoint` **Service URL**: `http://127.0.0.1:8545` (Besu RPC) **VMID**: 2400 **IP**: 192.168.11.240 --- ## 🔍 Troubleshooting ### Tunnel Not Showing in Dashboard - Wait a few minutes for Cloudflare to sync - Refresh the browser - Check tunnel ID matches: `26138c21-db00-4a02-95db-ec75c07bda5b` ### DNS Not Resolving - Verify CNAME target is correct: `26138c21-db00-4a02-95db-ec75c07bda5b.cfargotunnel.com` - Ensure Proxy is enabled (🟠 orange cloud) - Wait 1-2 minutes for DNS propagation ### Connection Refused - Verify Besu RPC is running: `systemctl status besu-rpc` - Test locally: `curl http://127.0.0.1:8545` (inside container) - Check tunnel route URL is correct: `http://127.0.0.1:8545` ### Check Tunnel Logs ```bash # View recent logs ssh root@192.168.11.10 "pct exec 2400 -- journalctl -u cloudflared -n 50 --no-pager" # Follow logs in real-time ssh root@192.168.11.10 "pct exec 2400 -- journalctl -u cloudflared -f" ``` --- **Last Updated**: 2026-01-02 **Status**: ✅ Ready for DNS and Route Configuration
