RUN-A-NODE.md: dated note (2026-09-11) on the bootnodes: the second accepts only its configured peers; a node behind NAT keeps one peer and Besu does not fetch transaction-bearing bodies from a single busy peer; forward the P2P port and set --p2p-host

Measured 2026-09-11: the second bootnode currently accepts connections only from its own configured
peers, so in practice your first peer is the first bootnode. A node that cannot receive inbound
connections (behind NAT without a forwarded port) keeps that single peer, and Besu does not fetch the
bodies of blocks that carry transactions from a single busy peer: the log repeats
`Unable to retrieve blocks for block numbers ... Restarting after short delay` and the import crawls.
Forward your P2P port (30303 by default) and, when you run the manual command below, add
`--p2p-host=<your public IP>` so that peers can bond with you; once discovery works the node reaches the
rest of the network on its own (measured the same day with ten peers: about 1,300 blocks per second
from genesis, no body failures).
`--sync-mode=FULL` is deliberate. Chain 2800 runs QBFT with a half second block period, so the head `--sync-mode=FULL` is deliberate. Chain 2800 runs QBFT with a half second block period, so the head
