- Make sure `rpc_public_addr` contains the public IP address of the node you are configuring.
This parameter is optional but recommended: if your nodes have trouble communicating with
one another, consider adding it.
+ Alternatively, you can also set `rpc_public_addr_subnet`, which can filter
+ the addresses announced to other peers to a specific subnet.
- Make sure `rpc_secret` is the same value on all nodes. It should be a 32-bytes hex-encoded secret key.
You can generate such a key with `openssl rand -hex 32`.

+#### `rpc_public_addr_subnet` {#rpc_public_addr_subnet}
+In case `rpc_public_addr` is not set, but autodiscovery is used, this allows
+filtering the list of automatically discovered IPs to a specific subnet.

+For example, if nodes should pick *their* IP inside a specific subnet, but you
+don't want to explicitly write the IP down (as it's dynamic, or you want to
+share configs across nodes), you can use this option.
