RunRK-Stratum

Set up your own RKStratum solo mining bridge. Choose your platform below and follow the step-by-step guide.

1Install Prerequisites

Install Rust and build dependencies:

Install Rust

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh

Load Rust into your shell

source $HOME/.cargo/env

Install build dependencies (Ubuntu/Debian)

sudo apt update && sudo apt install -y build-essential clang cmake git

Step 1 / 5

Firewall: Enable & Allow SSH

After your bridge is running, open ports on Ubuntu (UFW) so miners and PNN can reach you. Forward the same ports on your router to this machine's LAN IP.

1 · Enable firewall & allow SSH

Allow SSH first so you do not lock yourself out of a remote server.

Allow SSH (port 22)

sudo ufw allow ssh

Enable the firewall (type y when prompted)

sudo ufw enable

2 · Open public mining & sync ports

Use a single Stratum port, or a range if you run multiple difficulty instances.

Option A: Public Stratum Mining — single port (e.g. 5555)

sudo ufw allow 5555/tcp

Option B: Public Stratum Mining Ports — range for multiple difficulties

sudo ufw allow 5555:5561/tcp

Public Node Sync (P2P)

sudo ufw allow 16111/tcp

Remote Dashboard & API (InsScan / browser verification)

sudo ufw allow 3030/tcp

3 · Keep RPC local only

Port 16110 is for the bridge talking to kaspad on this machine. Do not open it to the internet.

Local Bridge RPC — allow from this machine only

sudo ufw allow from 127.0.0.1 to any port 16110 proto tcp

4 · Verify & go public

Check firewall rules

sudo ufw status

Expected shape (IPv6 rows are normal)

Status: active

To                         Action      From
--                         ------      ----
22/tcp                     ALLOW       Anywhere
5555:5561/tcp              ALLOW       Anywhere
16111/tcp                  ALLOW       Anywhere
3030/tcp                   ALLOW       Anywhere
16110/tcp                  ALLOW       127.0.0.1

Confirm Stratum listens on 0.0.0.0 (not only 127.0.0.1)

sudo ss -tulpn | grep 5555

Dashboard: http://YOUR_PUBLIC_IP:3030/

Miners: stratum+tcp://YOUR_PUBLIC_IP:5555 (use your Stratum port / difficulty)

After registration, your bridge should appear on /bridges. Use JOIN PNN at the bottom to register.
