Add bootnodes to Polkadot, Kusama and Westend

[miloskriz]

dear Team, hello,

Please consider the inclusion of these three bootnodes for the Polkadot, Kusama and Westend networks.

These bootnodes are geolocated in San Jose, Costa Rica, inside a Tier III facility with great connectivity to Latin America and superb sustainability credentials.

All the bootnodes offer the three requested services:

1. The raw P2P protocol, usable via the Polkadot binary.
2. The WS option via P2P, usable as well via the Polkadot binary.
3. The WSS option via P2P, usable via light clients.

These services were tested using the below commands, however, please note that due to #6208 and this the WSS method may require future verification by the light client stakeholders:

Polkadot:

polkadot --no-hardware-benchmarks --no-mdns --chain polkadot --reserved-only --reserved-nodes "/dns/dot-bootnode-cr.gatotech.network/tcp/31310/p2p/12D3KooWK4E16jKk9nRhvC4RfrDVgcZzExg8Q3Q2G7ABUUitks1w"

Westend:

Many Thanks!!

Dear all,

To provide further context, please note that additional commits have been presented regarding the bootnodes of @metaspan (metaspan.io).

Metaspan is a fellow member of the Infrastructure Builders Program and a project partner. Their bootnodes are running on 100% own hardware co-located in a reputable datacentre in South Buckinghamshire, United Kingdom.

These bootnodes provide the 3x requested services:

1. The raw P2P protocol, to sync new nodes via Polkadot binary.
2. The WS option via P2P, usable as well via the Polkadot binary.
3. The WSS option via P2P, as required for light clients.

These services were tested using the below commands, however, please note that final verification of the third one (wss/p2p) will be needed when the solution in substrate #13152 becomes available in polkadot:

Polkadot:

polkadot --no-hardware-benchmarks --no-mdns --chain polkadot --reserved-only --reserved-nodes "/dns/boot-polkadot.metaspan.io/tcp/13012/p2p/12D3KooWRjHFApinuqSBjoaDjQHvxwubQSpEVy5hrgC9Smvh92WF"
polkadot --no-hardware-benchmarks --no-mdns --chain polkadot --reserved-only --reserved-nodes "/dns/boot-polkadot.metaspan.io/tcp/13015/ws/p2p/12D3KooWRjHFApinuqSBjoaDjQHvxwubQSpEVy5hrgC9Smvh92WF"
polkadot --no-hardware-benchmarks --no-mdns --chain polkadot --reserved-only --reserved-nodes "/dns/boot-polkadot.metaspan.io/tcp/13016/wss/p2p/12D3KooWRjHFApinuqSBjoaDjQHvxwubQSpEVy5hrgC9Smvh92WF"

Kusama:

polkadot --no-hardware-benchmarks --no-mdns --chain kusama --reserved-only --reserved-nodes "/dns/boot-kusama.metaspan.io/tcp/23012/p2p/12D3KooWE1tq9ZL9AAxMiUBBqy1ENmh5pwfWabnoBPMo8gFPXhn6"
polkadot --no-hardware-benchmarks --no-mdns --chain kusama --reserved-only --reserved-nodes "/dns/boot-kusama.metaspan.io/tcp/23015/ws/p2p/12D3KooWE1tq9ZL9AAxMiUBBqy1ENmh5pwfWabnoBPMo8gFPXhn6"
polkadot --no-hardware-benchmarks --no-mdns --chain kusama --reserved-only --reserved-nodes "/dns/boot-kusama.metaspan.io/tcp/23016/wss/p2p/12D3KooWE1tq9ZL9AAxMiUBBqy1ENmh5pwfWabnoBPMo8gFPXhn6"

Westend:

polkadot --no-hardware-benchmarks --no-mdns --chain westend --reserved-only --reserved-nodes "/dns/boot-westend.metaspan.io/tcp/33012/p2p/12D3KooWNTau7iG4G9cUJSwwt2QJP1W88pUf2SgqsHjRU2RL8pfa"
polkadot --no-hardware-benchmarks --no-mdns --chain westend --reserved-only --reserved-nodes "/dns/boot-westend.metaspan.io/tcp/33015/ws/p2p/12D3KooWNTau7iG4G9cUJSwwt2QJP1W88pUf2SgqsHjRU2RL8pfa"
polkadot --no-hardware-benchmarks --no-mdns --chain westend --reserved-only --reserved-nodes "/dns/boot-westend.metaspan.io/tcp/33016/wss/p2p/12D3KooWNTau7iG4G9cUJSwwt2QJP1W88pUf2SgqsHjRU2RL8pfa"

Finally, we are glad to confirm that all network keys are duly backed up so the bootnode functionality can be maintained / upgraded / migrated without modifying the source code.

Many thanks!

Hello everyone!...

Just checking if everything is in good form with this PR from your perspective?...

we noticed that there are no labels (e.g. B0-silent) still added to it..

Please know that we are attentive to any of your comments in case something else is required to merge this into main...

Many thanks!!

Milos

[ggwpez]

Yes please rebase.

[bkchr]

@miloskriz please merge master.

[miloskriz]
