There is currently no pre-release version available for the pre-production environment.

The latest version available is cardano-node release 10.4.1.

Configuration files

Compatible with cardano-node release 10.4.1

NOTE:
The non-block-producer node config has `PeerSharing` enabled by
default, so should not be used with block-producers.

Additionally, avoid connecting a block-producer not using p2p to a p2p
PeerSharing enabled relay as the block-producer's IP will be leaked.

UTXO-HD

Users migrating from a previous version of the node should read the release notes and the consensus migration guide to properly configure the node and convert the database such that a replay from genesis can be avoided.

Ouroboros Genesis Mode

For those preferring to use Genesis mode over bootstrap peers, the Genesis mode topology file given above can be used in place of the default topology file. The following requirements will also need to be met:

• The node config file will need to have ConsensusMode set to GenesisMode

• The peer snapshot file, provided above, will need to exist at the path declared at peerSnapshotFile in the genesis mode topology file: an absolute path, or a relative path with respect to the node binary directory

Guardrails reference script UTxO

For convenience, the guardrails script has been put on a UTxO so that it can be used as reference script in Treasury Withdrawal and Update Protocol Parameter proposals.
