Solana maintains several different clusters with different purposes.
|
|
|
|
Before you begin make sure you have first
|
|
[installed the Solana command line tools](../cli/install.md)
|
|
|
|
Explorers:
|
|
|
|
- [http://explorer.solana.com/](https://explorer.solana.com/).
|

## Devnet
|
|
|
|
- Devnet serves as a playground for anyone who wants to take Solana for a
|
|
test drive, as a user, token holder, app developer, or validator.
|
|
- Application developers should target Devnet.
|
|
- Potential validators should first target Devnet.
|
|
- Key differences between Devnet and Mainnet Beta:
|
|
- Devnet tokens are **not real**
|
|
- Devnet includes a token faucet for airdrops for application testing
|
|
- Devnet may be subject to ledger resets
|
|
- Devnet typically runs the same software release branch version as Mainnet Beta,
|
|
but may run a newer minor release version than Mainnet Beta.
|
|
- Gossip entrypoint for Devnet: `entrypoint.devnet.solana.com:8001`
|
|
- Metrics environment variable for Devnet:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
export SOLANA_METRICS_CONFIG="host=https://metrics.solana.com:8086,db=devnet,u=scratch_writer,p=topsecret"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- RPC URL for Devnet: `https://api.devnet.solana.com`
|
|
|
|
##### Example `solana` command-line configuration
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
solana config set --url https://api.devnet.solana.com
|
|
```
|

## Testnet
|
|
|
|
- Testnet is where the Solana core contributors stress test recent release features on a live
|
|
cluster, particularly focused on network performance, stability and validator
|
|
behavior.
|
|
- Testnet tokens are **not real**
|
|
- Testnet may be subject to ledger resets.
|
|
- Testnet includes a token faucet for airdrops for application testing
|
|
- Testnet typically runs a newer software release branch than both
|
|
Devnet and Mainnet Beta
|
|
- Gossip entrypoint for Testnet: `entrypoint.testnet.solana.com:8001`
|
|
- Metrics environment variable for Testnet:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
export SOLANA_METRICS_CONFIG="host=https://metrics.solana.com:8086,db=tds,u=testnet_write,p=c4fa841aa918bf8274e3e2a44d77568d9861b3ea"
