net Namespace

The net API provides information about the networking component of the node.

net_listening

Returns a bool indicating whether or not the node is listening for network connections. Currently, Reth always returns true.

Example

// > {"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"net_listening","params":[]}
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"result":true}

net_peerCount

Returns the number of peers connected to the node as a hex-encoded quantity. Only established connections are counted.

Example

// > {"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"net_peerCount","params":[]}
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"result":"0xa"}

net_version

Returns the network ID (e.g. "1" for mainnet) as a string corresponding to the chain ID.

Example

// > {"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"net_version","params":[]}
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"result":"1"}
