## Files Deployed

### RPC Nodes (VMID 2400-2402, 2500-2508)
- ✅ `static-nodes.json` - Updated with 17 enodes
- ✅ `permissions-nodes.toml` - Updated with 17 enodes

### Validators (VMID 1000-1004)
- ✅ `permissions-nodes.toml` - Updated with 17 enodes

---

## Key Generation Method

Keys were generated using:
```bash
openssl rand -hex 32 | awk '{print "0x" $0}' > /data/besu/key
```

This creates a hex-encoded private key (0x followed by 64 hex characters), which is the format Besu expects.

---

## Verification

All files have been verified to contain the correct number of enodes:
- static-nodes.json: 17 enodes
- permissions-nodes.toml: 17 enodes

All files are properly owned by `besu:besu` and deployed to all nodes.

---

## Next Steps

1. ✅ Keys generated
2. ✅ Enodes extracted
3. ✅ Files updated
4. ✅ Files deployed
5. ⏳ Restart services (if needed) to apply changes
6. ⏳ Verify nodes can connect to each other
