hey @smrz2001 following up from the feedback from shacha on Gitcoin that it should generally be port 4001 instead of 4011, with an additional caveat around not being blocked by a firewall + consistency with the swarm address announced by IPFS > "API port on 5001 is fine, IPFS log says API server listening on /ip4/0.0.0.0/tcp/5001 and that should be internal-traffic only. Docs (https://developers.ceramic.network/run/nodes/nodes/#staying-connected-to-ipfs) says the swarm port is 4011 but it might be 4001 instead -- swarm port is the one that needs to be externally reachable"

LGTM apart from a minor change. I can merge it once finalized.
cc @v-stickykeys to double-check.

| Ceramic nodes rely on IPFS for networking. IPFS nodes connect to each other using a Libp2p module called "switch" (aka "swarm"). This module operates over a websocket, on port `4011` by default. The websocket port must be accessible to the internet so your Ceramic node can be connected to the network. | ||

Probably best to just mention the 4001 default port.
