@ -9,6 +9,14 @@ JSON-RPC is provided on multiple transports. Geth supports JSON-RPC over HTTP,
WebSocket and Unix Domain Sockets. Transports must be enabled through
command-line flags.
Ethereum JSON-RPC APIs use a name-space system. RPC methods are grouped into
several categories depending on their purpose. All method names are composed of
the namespace, an underscore, and the actual method name within the namespace.
For example, the `eth_call` method resides in the `eth` namespace.
Access to RPC methods can be enabled on a per-namespace basis. Find
documentation for individual namespaces in the sidebar.
### HTTP Server
To enable the HTTP server, use the `--rpc` flag.
