Update, upgrade, and clean the system, and then firewall management (ufw), Docker, and the Git version control system.
sudo apt update -y && sudo apt upgrade -y && sudo apt auto-remove -y
sudo apt install docker.io docker-compose git ufw -y
Set explicit default UFW rules
sudo ufw default deny incoming
sudo ufw default allow outgoing
Allow SSH, HTTP and HTTPS
sudo ufw allow 22/tcp
sudo ufw allow 80
sudo ufw allow 443
Enable Firewall
sudo ufw enable
Get the IP address of the host machine, you can use the following command in a terminal or command prompt
curl ifconfig.me
Set an A record for a domain, you need to access the domain's DNS settings and create an A record that points to the IP address of the host machine. This configuration allows users to reach your domain by resolving the domain name to the specific IP address associated with your host machine.

The first command, mkdir Linea
, will create a new directory named Linea in the current location. The second command, cd Linea
, will change your current working directory to the newly created base directory. Now you are inside the base directory and can start storing docker-compose and related files in it.
mkdir Linea
cd Linea
sudo nano .env
Paste the following into the file.
EMAIL={YOUR_EMAIL} #Your email to receive SSL renewal emails
DOMAIN={YOUR_DOMAIN} #Domain should be something like rpc.mywebsite.com, e.g. linea.infradao.org
WHITELIST={YOUR_REMOTE_MACHINE_IP} #the server's IP itself and comma separated list of IP's allowed to connect to RPC (e.g. Indexer)
{% hint style="info" %} ctrl + x and y to save file {% endhint %}
mkdir config
cd config
curl -LO https://docs.linea.build/files/geth/mainnet/genesis.json
Return to Linea directory
cd ~/linea

docker-compose up -d
Use docker logs
to monitor your Linea node. The -f
flag ensures you are following the log output
docker logs linea-mainnet -f --tail 100
Allow a few minutes for the Linea node to connect with peers. Once it starts syncing, the logs should look like this:
Feb 26 01:14:36 tiberian-infradao geth[118326]: INFO [02-26|01:14:36.231] Looking for peers peercount=0 tried=131 static=0

You can call the JSON-RPC API methods to confirm the node is running. For example, call eth_syncing
to return the synchronization status. For example the starting, current, and highest block, or false
if not synchronizing (or if the head of the chain has been reached)
curl https://{YOUR_DOMAIN} \
-X POST \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_syncing","params":[],"id":1}'
