Hello @GoCodeMaestro,  
Welcome to the forum!

How did you make this setup? Do you use `storj-sim`: [Test network · storj/storj Wiki · GitHub](https://github.com/storj/storj/wiki/Test-network) or `storj-up`: [GitHub - storj/up: Docker-compose files for running full Storj network locally](https://github.com/storj/up)?
