### Help Command

There are a few changes from the individual binaries used in the past. For example by default `run` command does `init` function as well, local node `--id` will be set by default unless specified otherwise etcetera.

The Wireguard flags currently have limited functionality, with `--wireguard-enabled` being the most relevant, enabling or disabling wireguard functionality.
```admonish bug
The Wireguard flags currently have limited functionality. This feature is under development and testing.
**Keep Wireguard disabled for the time being!**
```

#### Flags Summary

Some of the most useful flags and their explanation:

~~~admonish example collapsible=true title="Flags explanation:"
- `--id <YOUR_ID>`: Local identifier of your node. This `<ID>` determines your config path located at `~/.nym/nym-nodes/<ID>/config/config.toml`, default value is `default-nym-node`
- `--config-file <PATH>`: Used for the migrate command to indicate the location of the existing node config file. Default path is `~/.nym/nym-nodes/default-nym-node/config/config.toml`
- `--deny-init`: Use this flag to prevent a new node from being initialized. It's recommended to use this after the first run to avoid accidental spinning up of a second node.

4. [Check Gateway Connectivity](#check-gateway-connectivity)
5. See logs of your Gateway and search [for errors](#nym-node-errors) - if you find any unusual one, you can ask in the [Element Node Operators](https://matrix.to/#/#operators:nymtech.chat) channel
- If your logs show that your Node has `cover down: 0.00` that means that the embedded IPR and NR is not sending any cover traffic.

7. When all problems addressed:Wait until your node gets above 50% of performance (average of last 24h) - this will likely take several hours, up to a day. During this time your node is tested by `nym-api` and every positive response picks up your Gateway's routing score.
