## Running Without DoS Protection
To test cover traffic without RLN spam protection (avoids heavy proof generation compute), the config files include two flags:
```toml
mix-user-message-limit=2 # slots per epoch (reduce for lighter testing)
mix-disable-spam-protection=true # skip RLN proof generation/verification
```
These are already set in `config.toml` through `config4.toml`. To re-enable RLN, set `mix-disable-spam-protection=false` (or remove the line) and ensure credentials are generated via `./build_setup.sh`.
When running without DoS protection, cover traffic uses an internal epoch timer and does not require RLN credentials or `rln_tree.db`.
### Monitoring Cover Traffic
Use the metrics script to verify cover traffic is working:
```bash
./check_cover_traffic.sh
```
Key metrics to look for:
- `mix_cover_emitted_total` — cover messages generated per node (should increase each epoch)
- `mix_cover_received_total` — cover messages received back at origin after 3-hop mix path
- `mix_slots_exhausted_total` — expected when slots per epoch are low
