# AnySync Netcheck Tool

A simple tool that checks the ability to connect to Anytype nodes. It was created to test network and TLS (sync) issues.

The _Netcheck_ Tool opens a connection to the coordinator nodes to establish communication with the libp2p protocol and _AnySync_ handshakes, to attempt to execute network configuration requests.
