Update your nodes to v5.0.3
Please update your nodes to v5.0.3 as soon as possible. Release notes are available at https://github.com/algorand/go-algorand/releases/tag/v5.0.3-stable.
This patch fixes an issue with DNSSEC validation that prevents nodes from bootstrapping into the network when started or restarted. The issue affects all types of nodes.
Nodes that are currently connected to the network are functioning properly, but a new start or restart with versions less than 5.0.3 will not be able to validate DNSSEC signatures, which are required by default. This would result in the node being unable to connect to the network.
If you have any questions about upgrading your nodes, please reach out to us in the node-runners channel of the Algorand Discord server.
