Configuring pools in Vnish firmware

The Vnish firmware is a powerful tool for optimizing the performance of ASIC miners, allowing you to increase efficiency and monitor device parameters in real time. One of the key steps in configuring a miner is properly connecting to a pool for stable and efficient mining.

If you don’t yet have an account on a pool, read the instructions.

This guide will walk you through setting up a pool in the Vnish firmware so your miner can operate correctly.

Step-by-step Guide

1. Accessing the miner’s web interface

   • ► Connect to the network where your miner is located.
   • ► Open a browser on your computer or mobile device.
   • ► Enter the miner’s IP address in the browser’s address bar.
   • ► Enter the login password (default: admin, unless changed).

2. Navigating to the pool settings section

   • ► In the interface menu, find the Mining section.


3. Entering pool details

   • ► URL or pool server address: enter the pool address, for example, for ViaBTC: stratum+tcp://:.
   • ► Username (Worker): specify the name of your worker created on the pool.
   • ► Password: if required by the pool, enter the worker’s password; often this is just “x” or left blank.
   • ► You can add multiple pools for backup connection by setting a primary and a secondary pool.


4. Saving settings and rebooting

   • ► After entering all required data, click the Save button.
   • ► To apply the new settings, reboot the device using the Apply button.

Your miner is now ready for stable operation on the selected pool with the Vnish firmware!
