BNB Smart Chain method guide

Last updated:

net_listening returns whether the selected BNB Smart Chain node reports that it is listening for peer-to-peer network connections.

Use it as a narrow node diagnostic. The boolean describes the upstream node selected for this request and should not be interpreted as a pool-wide availability signal.

This method does not report how many peers are connected. Use net_peerCount for the selected node's peer count and eth_syncing for its synchronization status.

Parameters

This method takes no parameters.

Returns

net_listening return value
FieldType
listeningBoolean
