# Lido <-> SSV DVT ## Are my ports *actually* open? 1. Open a terminal inside the machine that runs the SSV node, and run this command to get it's public IP: ```bash curl ifconfig.me ``` Note: If SSV is under Docker, in most cases it's using the same IP as your machine. If you're not sure, here's a bulletproof way to check the IP from inside the SSV container: ```bash docker exec <ssv-container-name-or-id> wget -qO- ifconfig.me ``` 2. Open https://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ in your browser 3. Paste the node's IP into `Remote Address`, and the TCP port you wanna check into `Port Number` *(by default it's 13001, unless you set `TcpPort` in the `config.yaml` or passed the `TcpPort` env variable)* 4. Click [Check] Does it say that the port is open? ## How many peers do I have? You should expect to have around 50-60 peers (the default limit). You can check this by searching for the log `connected peers status`. If you're using Docker, you can search with this command: ```bash docker logs <ssv-container-name-or-id> 2>&1 | grep "connected peers status" ```
