</Frame>

The node list displays all deployed nodes with:

* Node name
* Protocol and network
* Date created
* Date updated
* Current status

### Filtering and sorting

Use the controls to:

* Filter by status — All statuses, Running, Bootstrapping, Error
* Search for specific nodes

## Node details

Click on any node to view its details page, which includes:

### Overview tab

| Information   | Description                          |
| ------------- | ------------------------------------ |
| Protocol      | Blockchain protocol (e.g., Ethereum) |
| Network       | Network name (e.g., Mainnet, Hoodi)  |
| Date created  | When the node was deployed           |
| Deployment ID | Unique identifier for the deployment |
| Revision ID   | Current revision of the deployment   |
| Date updated  | Last modification timestamp          |

**Access and credentials for your node:**

| Endpoint                       | Description                             |
| ------------------------------ | --------------------------------------- |
| Execution client HTTP endpoint | JSON-RPC HTTP endpoint (port 8545)      |
| Execution client WSS endpoint  | JSON-RPC WebSocket endpoint (port 8546) |
| Consensus client HTTP endpoint | Beacon API endpoint (port 5052)         |

<Note>
  The endpoint URLs are internal Kubernetes service addresses. To access nodes from outside the cluster, you'll need to expose these services via LoadBalancer, NodePort, or Ingress.
</Note>

### Settings tab

The Settings tab provides additional actions for the deployed node. Currently available:

| Action      | Purpose                                  |
| ----------- | ---------------------------------------- |
| Delete node | Permanently remove the node and its data |

## Monitoring

The Control Panel includes an integrated observability stack with pre-built Grafana dashboards for node health, sync status, and Kubernetes infrastructure metrics. See [Monitoring](/docs/self-hosted/monitoring) for access instructions.
