Starting the Staking Node

On the NES console, click Network Management.
Click a node ID.

Figure 1 Node ID
Obtain the node information.

For a Prysm client, you can obtain its gRPC Endpoint, Node TLS Certificate, and HTTP Endpoint.

For a Lighthouse client, you can obtain its HTTP Endpoint and Node TLS Certificate.
Figure 2 Node details of a Prysm client
Paste the key and TLS certificate to the hardware machine installed with the script.
For a Prysm client, run the following command to import the key to the keystore:
```
./prysm.sh validator accounts import --keys-dir=<YOUR_FOLDER_PATH> --< NETWORK >
```
NETWORK is the staking network and YOUR_FOLDER_PATH is the actual key file path.

For a Lighthouse client, run the following command to import the key to the keystore:
```
lighthouse --network < NETWORK > account validator import --directory < YOUR_FOLDER_PATH >
```
NETWORK is the staking network and YOUR_FOLDER_PATH is the actual key file path.
After the key is imported, perform the following operations for a Prysm client and Lighthouse client, respectively.
For a Prysm client, run the prysm.sh file, configure the following parameters, and start the staking node.
- beacon-rpc-provider: the value of gRPC Endpoint
- grpc-headers: the API key
- tls-cert: the relative path of Node TLS Certificate
Example:
```
./prysm.sh validator --beacon-rpc-provider=xx.xx.xx.xx:30002 --grpc-headers=credential=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx --tls-cert=ca.crt
```
For a Lighthouse client, run the lighthouse vc command, configure the following parameters, and start the staking node.
- network: the staking network
- suggested-fee-recipient: the suggested fee recipient
- beacon-nodes-tls-certs: the relative path of Node TLS Certificate
- beacon-nodes: the HTTP endpoint or API key information
```
lighthouse vc --network < **NETWORK** > --suggested-fee-recipient <**YourFeeRecipientAddress** > --beacon-nodes-tls-certs ca.pem --beacon-nodes https://xx.xx.xx.xx:30000/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
```
These parameters are mandatory for interconnecting Huawei Cloud nodes. Check the Prysm Documentation and Lighthouse Documentation to learn other parameters.
