Open your grid to friends and the wider metaverse.
1 Open Ports
By default the stack exposes the following ports on your host. Forward them through your firewall/router if you want others to connect.
| Port | Protocol | Service | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
9000 | TCP & UDP | OpenSimulator | Region simulator HTTP and UDP traffic. |
Default passwords are intentionally lax for local use. Change all credentials and consider adding bearer tokens before exposing services to the internet.
2 Join the Hypergrid
OpenSimulator supports the Hypergrid, a protocol that lets avatars teleport between independent grids as if they were one big metaverse. Once your grid is reachable on a public hostname, other users can visit by teleporting to a hypergrid address like:
<OPENSIM_HOSTNAME>:9000:Region NameTo travel from your grid to another, open the world map in your viewer and enter the destination hypergrid address.

Specific hypergrid coordinates and grid registration steps will be added here once this project has its own public grid presence.
