## How to see information about your Tor configuration via Bitcoin Core
|
|

|
There are several ways to see your local onion address in Bitcoin Core:
|
|
|
|
|
- in the debug log (grep for "tor:" or "AddLocal")
|
|
|
|
|
- in the output of RPC `getnetworkinfo` in the "localaddresses" section
|
|
|
|
|
- in the output of the CLI `-netinfo` peer connections dashboard
|
|
|
|
|
- in the "Local addresses" output of CLI `-netinfo`
|
|
|
|
|
- in the "localaddresses" output of RPC `getnetworkinfo`
|
|
|
|
|
- in the debug log (grep for "AddLocal"; the Tor address ends in `.onion`)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You may set the `-debug=tor` config logging option to have additional
|
|
|
|
|
information in the debug log about your Tor configuration.

e.g. for `-onlynet=onion`.

To fetch a number of onion addresses that your node knows, for example seven

addresses, use the `getnodeaddresses 7 onion` RPC.
