Hello.
I recently set up a new relay, jaffacakemonster2, I would be grateful if someone could answer some questions for me.
- The bandwidth on Atlas is listed as "0". Is this a wait a few
days/new relay issue or a configuration issue. I was surprised to find exit relays are default now, I hope I didn't disable too much so to speak.
It's 0 because you're a new relay and haven't been measured yet.
All you need to do to stop being an exit is "ExitRelay 0" in your torrc. What else did you disable?
- My family on Atlas - the little numbers in brackets are not all the
same, I only run two relays, however on the listings it reports sometimes two sometimes three. Are you meant to include "yourself" in the torrc or only other relays??
Relays can include themselves in their MyFamily. It doesn't hurt and doesn't cause issues.
Right now I only see 2 on jaffacakemonster2 and 1 on jaffacakemonster. Seeing 3 would be weird, because in order for a pair of relays to be in the same family, they must both list each other in their torrcs.
Thank you for running a relay. If you haven't read this blog post yet, you may want to.
