Info

Understanding “host”:

The “host” is where CAS will steer RPC communications: the target server. The server will vary upon your implementation, and the IP will vary depending upon your actual assigned IP for your node/server.

The GB Cloud CAS requires use of the GB Wallet Tunnel.

  • host: is normally localhost when

    • a) using a SSH tunnel, or

    • b) running on the same server as CAS.

    • These options are NOT available when using the GB Cloud CAS.

  • when using the GB Wallet Tunnel, the host is the target Geth Ethereum node,

    • e.g. “http://123.123.123.123

    • The GB Wallet Tunnel will attempt to connect to your Geth Ethereum node at that IP.

    • This option is required when using the GB Cloud CAS.
