Run rippled as a Stock Server

A stock server is a multipurpose configuration for rippled. With a stock server, you can submit transactions to the XRP Ledger, access ledger history, and use the latest tools to integrate with XRP. It is also a server that you can use to connect a wallet with the XRPL.

A stock server does all of the following:

• Connects to a network of peers

• Relays cryptographically signed transactions

• Maintains a local copy of the complete shared global ledger

To participate in the consensus process as a validator, run rippled as a validator instead.

Install and run rippled

The default package installation installs a stock server with a small amount of transaction history. For installation steps, see Install rippled.

After installation, you can adjust how much history your server stores at a time. For steps on how to do this, see Configure Online Deletion.
