How about to use Wireshark to get the real IP of that notorious [insert.your.ip]?
You can filter out all the tcp packets containing “insert.your.ip”, and find the real source IP of those packets using following filter.
(tcp.port == 8800) and (tcp contains “insert.your.ip”)
I tried but my server went wrong and couldn’t identify NIC…
Anyway, I’ve grepped any lines containing “insert.your.ip” in validator_debug.log, but I don’t know what connection_id means. Is it unique for every validator, or temporary id for each tcp connection?
$ docker exec sawtooth-validator-default tail -f /var/log/sawtooth/validator-debug.log | grep “insert.your.ip”
