Remix will be used to deploy a smart contract to the node which requires information to be exchanged externally to Geth's own domain. To permit this, enable `http` and the `net` namespace must be enabled and the Remix URL must be provided to `--http.corsdomain`. For this tutorial some other namespaces will also be enabled.

The terminal will display a request for a password, twice. Once provided, a new account will be created and its address printed to the terminal. The account creation is also logged in the Geth terminal, including the location of the keyfile in the keystore. It is a good idea to back up the password somewhere at this point. If this were an account on a live network, intended to own assets of real-world value, it would be critical to back up the account password and the keystore in a secure manner.

This tutorial used an ephemeral blockchain that is completely destroyed and started afresh during each dev-mode session.

This is done by providing the `--datadir` flag and a directory name when starting Geth in dev-mode.

Geth's PoW algorithm, [Ethhash](https://ethereum.org/en/developers/docs/consensus-mechanisms/pow/mining-algorithms/ethash), is a system that allows open participation by anyone willing to dedicate resources to mining. While this is a critical property for a public network, the overall security of the blockchain strictly depends on the total amount of resources used to secure it. As such, PoW is a poor choice for private networks with few miners. The Ethash mining 'difficulty' is adjusted automatically so that new blocks are created approximately 12 seconds apart. As more mining resources are deployed on the network, creating a new block becomes harder so that the average block time matches the target block time.

This command will return an error message indicating that `authentication is needed: password or unlock`. This is a security feature that prevents unauthorized access to sensitive account operations. There are two ways to unlock the account. The first is to start Geth with the account permanently unlocked (by passing `--unlock <address>` at startup). This is not recommended because the account remains unlocked all the time Geth is running, creating a security weakness. Instead, it is better to temporarily unlock the account for the specific transaction. This requires using the `sendTransaction` method from the `personal` namespace instead of the `eth` namespace. The password can be provided as a string in the method call as follows:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
personal.sendTransaction({
|
||||
from: "0xca57f3b40b42fcce3c37b8d18adbca5260ca72ec",

Not all of the JSON-RPC method namespaces are enabled for HTTP requests by default. Instead, they have to be whitelisted explicitly when Geth is started. Calling non-whitelisted RPC namespaces returns an RPC error with code `-32602`.
|
||||
|
||||
The default whitelist allows access to the `eth`, `net` and `web3` namespaces. To enable access to other APIs like account management (`personal`) and debugging (`debug`), they must be configured using the `--http.api` flag. Enabling these APIs over HTTP is **not recommended** because access to these methods increases the attack surface.

|

Since the HTTP server is reachable from any local application, additional protection is built into the server to prevent misuse of the API from web pages. To enable access to the API from a web page (for example to use the online IDE, [Remix](https://remix.ethereum.org)), the server needs to be configured to accept Cross-Origin requests. This is achieved using the `--http.corsdomain` flag.
