Kubo does not show /ipfs/kad/1.0.0 stream

[kirillsurkov]

Hi everyone! Why is /ipfs/kad/1.0.0 not listed in open streams? I'm using Kubo for WebUI. My Behaviour looks like this:

#[derive(NetworkBehaviour)]
struct Behaviour {
    ping: ping::Behaviour,
    identify: identify::Behaviour,
    kad: kad::Behaviour<kad::store::MemoryStore>,
    relay: relay::client::Behaviour,
}

I also noticed that get_closest_peers is much slower in rust-libp2p, in comparison to Kubo's ipfs routing findpeer. What could be the reason?

Hey @kirillsurkov,

You would need make sure that you have an external address available or that the mode is set to server. By default, it is in client mode, unless the node discovers an external address that is reachable, either via upnp, autonat, or relay, then it will switch to server mode.
