  "textContent": "> If I am running a Monero node on a PC on my home network, and want to use it to access the node from other devices also on my local network, do I have to specify the node’s IP address in the monerod command to run the node, or can I just use 127.0.0.1 as prescribed in the documentation?\n\n127.0.0.1 is localhost. It is only available from the same host that monerod runs on. If you want to access the node from other devices on the LAN, you have to enable a restricted rpc, bound to “all interfaces” (0.0.0.0), or to the LAN ip address of the host that runs monerod (192.168.x.x).\n\nlike so: `--rpc-restricted-bind-ip=0.0.0.0 --rpc-restricted-bind-port=18089`\n\nIn cake wallet, you’ll then access via port 18089.",
