### Starting The Validator
Sanity check that you are able to interact with the cluster by receiving a small
airdrop of lamports from the testnet drone:

If this is a `solana-install`-installation:
```bash
$ fullnode-x.sh --public-address --poll-for-new-genesis-block beta.testnet.solana.com
$ clear-fullnode-config.sh
$ fullnode.sh --public-address --poll-for-new-genesis-block beta.testnet.solana.com
```
Alternatively, the `solana-install run` command can be used to run the validator
node while periodically checking for and applying software updates:
```bash
$ solana-install run fullnode-x.sh -- --public-address --poll-for-new-genesis-block beta.testnet.solana.com
$ solana-install run fullnode.sh -- --public-address --poll-for-new-genesis-block beta.testnet.solana.com
```
When not using `solana-install`:
If you built from source:
```bash
$ USE_INSTALL=1 ./multinode-demo/fullnode-x.sh --public-address --poll-for-new-genesis-block beta.testnet.solana.com
$ USE_INSTALL=1 ./multinode-demo/clear-fullnode-config.sh
$ USE_INSTALL=1 ./multinode-demo/fullnode.sh --public-address --poll-for-new-genesis-block edge.testnet.solana.com
```
Then from another console, confirm the IP address if your node is now visible in
the gossip network by running:
```bash
$ solana-gossip --network beta.testnet.solana.com:8001
```
Congratulations, you're now participating in the testnet cluster!
#### Controlling local network port allocation
By default the validator will dynamically select available network ports in the
8000-10000 range, and may be overridden with `--dynamic-port-range`. For
example, `fullnode-x.sh --dynamic-port-range 11000-11010 ...` will restrict the
example, `fullnode.sh --dynamic-port-range 11000-11010 ...` will restrict the
validator to ports 11000-11011.
### Validator Monitoring
From another console, confirm the IP address of your validator is visible in the
gossip network by running:
```bash
solana-gossip --network edge.testnet.solana.com:8001
```
When `fullnode.sh` starts, it will output a fullnode configuration that looks
similar to:
```bash
======================[ Fullnode configuration ]======================
node id: 4ceWXsL3UJvn7NYZiRkw7NsryMpviaKBDYr8GK7J61Dm
vote id: 2ozWvfaXQd1X6uKh8jERoRGApDqSqcEy6fF1oN13LL2G
ledger: ...
accounts: ...
======================================================================
```
Provide the **vote id** pubkey to the `solana-wallet show-vote-account` command to view
the recent voting activity from your validator:
```bash
$ solana-wallet -n beta.testnet.solana.com show-vote-account 2ozWvfaXQd1X6uKh8jERoRGApDqSqcEy6fF1oN13LL2G
