How to use ethereum-package to run external EL/CL/VC nodes for the running Private testnet. #795

I started my own private Ethereum network by using the ethereum-package. I verified that all the nodes (EL/CL/VC/relay/builder) are working properly as expected.

Now, I want to expand the scale of the network and spin up additional EL/CL/VC nodes on a separate machine that can sync with the existing private network. However, I was only able to find guides and instructions related to setting up nodes for public testnets like Holesky or Sepolia.

Could you please provide guidance on:

  • Configuring new external EL/CL/VC nodes to connect and sync with my existing private testnet network.
  • Any specific configurations, flags, or parameters I need to be aware of for both the existing and new nodes.
  • How to ensure the new nodes are properly discovered by the private network, including any necessary changes to networking settings (like static peers or bootnodes).
  • Security recommendations for adding external nodes to a private testnet in a way that maintains the integrity of the private network.

Thank you in advance for your help!
