@ -9,4 +9,10 @@ On CRXN we use addresses within the `fd00::/8` space otherwise known as the ULA-
Here is what a ULA would look like: `fd2d:194b:a02f::/48`
You can generate your ULA you would like to use for CRXN using a tool such as [Unique Local IPv6 Generator](https://www.unique-local-ipv6.com/) or if you are good at basic programming and mathematics you could write a C program to do it.

## Registering the prefix
Once you have your prefix generated you then are required to register the prefix. This entails adding your prefix to a database known as _EntityDB_ which holds all such entries. This is done in order to ensure there are no clashes with addresses and also doubles as a source of truth in terms of what networks _should_ be available on CRXN along with some information about available services.
To register your prefix on EntityDB please visit the repository [here](https://codeberg.org/CRXN/entitydb), fork the repository, then follow the [`README.md`](https://codeberg.org/CRXN/entitydb/src/branch/master/README.md) on how to format your entry, create a pull request and wait for approval from a network administrator. Only then will you be allowed to continue with this tutorial.
