 Flux CUMULUS Node Under $100!




With complete setup instructions for this exact Flux Node hardware so you don't have to guess

Setting up your first Flux node In this instruction write-up, we will cover a widely available usually renewed HP 600 G1 Micro Computer Mini Tower PC with a specific setup adequate for the node at the time of this writing.


Flux CUMULUS Node Requirements:

Staking Requirement:
1000 FLUX for node staking

Hardware Requirements
2 Cores
4 Threads
8 GB RAM
220 GB SSD/NVME
180 MB/s DWS
240 EPS Min. Requirements
25 Mb down/up speed
VPS and ARM64 compatible

The hardware we will be using:
This is a very nice stackable mini PC with plenty of power and low power consumption. I was able to set up the Flux Cumulus node without any issues and it has been working reliably for months!
You could easily stack 8 of these units and run an 8-node Flux Cumulus setup provided you have enough internet bandwidth. I tested 8 node set-up with as low as 70Mbps artificially throttled internet speed limit and they all passed without any issues.

FluxNode Cumulus hardware requirements are met so we now move on to
Step 1 of Initiating Cumulus Node in ZelCore

A. There are plenty of consumer-grade routers that are sold that can work with FlunxNode but if you want a reliable and more advanced router that gives you a ton of flexibility with not just FluxNode but with getting your networking under total control, I would consider a Mini PC designed to run a firewall such as pFsense 1. Access your internet router's web interface and look for an option for either of these terms or similar - this may vary based on your router brand:  DHCP Server Address Reservation ,  DHCP Reservations ,  DHCP Leases , etc. Basically, the DHCP Server option, where we get to tie the MAC address of your HP Flux Node to a specific IP, so that it is always reserved for your node and automatically assigned by the rou...
