# Services

BlockPro endpoints and community connection resources for Dora Mainnet.

**Mainnet · `vota-ash`**

BlockPro public endpoints for Dora Vota Mainnet. Public endpoints are shared infrastructure; use your own node for workloads that require dedicated capacity.

## Public endpoints

| Service  | Provider | Address                                                                           |
| -------- | -------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| RPC      | BlockPro | [https://dora-mainnet-rpc.block-pro.net](https://dora-mainnet-rpc.block-pro.net/) |
| REST API | BlockPro | [https://dora-mainnet-api.block-pro.net](https://dora-mainnet-api.block-pro.net/) |

Use the checks below to confirm the network, application version and synchronization state before relying on an endpoint.

### Check RPC health

Read the chain, height, last block time and synchronization flag.

```bash
curl -fsS https://dora-mainnet-rpc.block-pro.net/status | jq '.result | {chain: .node_info.network, height: .sync_info.latest_block_height, time: .sync_info.latest_block_time, catching_up: .sync_info.catching_up}'
```

### Check application version

The application version is different from the CometBFT version shown by RPC.

```bash
curl -fsS https://dora-mainnet-api.block-pro.net/cosmos/base/tendermint/v1beta1/node_info | jq '{chain: .default_node_info.network, version: .application_version.version}'
```

## Peers and seeds

The following connection details are published by [ITRocket](https://itrocket.space/services/mainnet/doravota/). They are community services, not BlockPro endpoints.

**Seed**

```bash
4ec0eb59ae35418a9bfa3df3783bad4f372b49c0@doravota-mainnet-seed.itrocket.net:42656
```

**Persistent peer**

```bash
d6edfdb5eae3565a4af1ce35fd2c03084b8c3ef1@doravota-mainnet-peer.itrocket.net:42656
```

Add these to `seeds` and `persistent_peers` in `$HOME/.dora/config/config.toml`. See [Installation](/mainnet/dora/installation.md) for the exact commands.

## Live peers

Querying net\_info requires the RPC provider to expose that endpoint. Reachability and peer addresses can change.

### Inspect local peers

Read peer IDs and advertised listening addresses from your synchronized node.

```bash
curl -fsS http://127.0.0.1:26657/net_info | jq -r '.result.peers[] | [.node_info.id, .node_info.listen_addr, .remote_ip] | @tsv'
```

Use a peer's verified public P2P address. An HTTP RPC hostname, a loopback address or a private advertised address is not automatically a usable P2P endpoint.

## Addrbook

Optional community addrbook: [ITRocket download](https://server-1.itrocket.net/mainnet/doravota/addrbook.json). Use only the file for **vota-ash** and stop the service before replacing your local address book.

### Download a candidate

Save separately so a failed download cannot replace the current file.

```bash
curl -fL https://server-1.itrocket.net/mainnet/doravota/addrbook.json -o "$HOME/addrbook-dora.json"
```

### Validate JSON

Check the downloaded file before using it.

```bash
jq -e . "$HOME/addrbook-dora.json" > /dev/null
```

### Stop the node

Stop the process before replacing the address book.

```bash
sudo systemctl stop dorad
```

### Install the addrbook

Keep a numbered backup when an addrbook already exists.

```bash
cp --backup=numbered "$HOME/addrbook-dora.json" "$HOME/.dora/config/addrbook.json"
```

### Start the node

Restart and check peer connections.

```bash
sudo systemctl start dorad
```

## Snapshots

BlockPro directory: [server-2.block-pro.net/dora](https://server-2.block-pro.net/dora/). The configured publication interval is **every 4 hours**. At review, the directory contained no downloadable archive; use the availability note and alternatives on the snapshot page.
