Why my node1 can's sync from the other node through RPC command "addnode IP:port onetry"?

Bitcoin Stack Exchange

Bitcoin News / Bitcoin Stack Exchange 154 Views

I'm using bitcoin core 22.0 to start two nodes in two different containers in the same VMware ubuntu18.04, with network mode using Host-Only(I will talk about the reason later).

What my aim to do so is to set up a private blockchain locally, just for experiment, but regtest and custom signet didn't serve my purpose, because the difficulty on regtest is too low and signet needs extra signer to sign blocks. So I use off-line testnet3(with -dnsseed=0, no syncing from the internet) to link the above two nodes to set up a small bitcoin network locally.

What my problem is When I use the command bitcoin-cli -conf=/data/bitcoin/bitcoin.conf addnode "172.17.0.3:18002" onetry to set a p2p connection one node1, the node1 didn't sync header,blocks,etc from the node it connected. I'm new to bitcoin core and I'm so CONFUSED. Hope anyone could help so solve this problem. Thanks a lot in advance. I will put my config file below.

Start noed1

# bitcoind -conf=/data/bitcoin/bitcoin.conf -datadir=/data/bitcoin -dnsseed=0

bitcoin.conf of node1

testnet=1
[test]
rpcuser=test1
rpcpassword=test1
rpcbind=0.0.0.0
rpcport=18332
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
server=1
port=18001
listen=1

what the node1 output:

Then, I use the below command to connect node1 and node2

bitcoin-cli -conf=/data/bitcoin/bitcoin.conf addnode "172.17.0.3:18002" onetry

The output is just one line in node1 and nothing else, no outputs on node2:

2022-07-21T04:50:38Z New outbound peer connected: version: 70016, blocks=7, peer=0 (manual)

And then, I use wireshark to capture the Packet between these two nodes. And I found that there weren't any "headers" message to response the "get headers" message. I put the screenshot below, if it is unclear just tell me to modify it.

enter image description here

What confuses me is that the Node1 didn't sync the 7 blocks and header etc. from Node2 and I don't know why.

Use getpeerinfo on node1, and I got this:

Use getpeerinfo on node2, and I got this:

[ { "id": 1, "addr": "172.17.0.2:44972", "addrbind": "172.17.0.3:18002", "network": "not_publicly_routable", "services": "0000000000000409", "servicesnames": [ "NETWORK", "WITNESS", "NETWORK_LIMITED" ], "relaytxes": true, "lastsend": 1658380493, "lastrecv": 1658380493, "last_transaction": 0, "last_block": 0, "bytessent": 1352, "bytesrecv": 1077, "conntime": 1658379413, "timeoffset": 0, "pingtime": 0.000598, "minping": 0.000176, "version": 70016, "subver": "/Satoshi:22.0.0/", "inbound": true, "bip152_hb_to": false, "bip152_hb_from": false, "startingheight": 0, "synced_headers": -1, "synced_blocks": -1, "inflight": [ ], "addr_processed": 0, "addr_rate_limited": 0, "permissions": [ ], "minfeefilter": 0.09170997, "bytessent_per_msg": { "addrv2": 107, "feefilter": 32, "getheaders": 285, "ping": 320, "pong": 320, "sendaddrv2": 24, "sendcmpct": 66, "sendheaders": 24, "verack": 24, "version": 126, "wtxidrelay": 24 }, "bytesrecv_per_msg": { "feefilter": 32, "getaddr": 24, "getheaders": 93, "ping": 320, "pong": 320, "sendaddrv2": 24, "sendcmpct": 66, "sendheaders": 24, "verack": 24, "version": 126, "wtxidrelay": 24 }, "connection_type": "inbound" }
