# Get Network Status

`POST /network/status`

This endpoint returns the current status of the network requested. Any
NetworkIdentifier returned by /network/list should be accessible here.

## Request body

- NetworkRequest — A NetworkRequest is utilized to retrieve some data specific exclusively to a NetworkIdentifier.
  - `network_identifier` NetworkIdentifier, required — unresolved $ref
  - `metadata` object

## Response `200`

Expected response to a valid request

- NetworkStatusResponse — NetworkStatusResponse contains basic information about the node's view of a blockchain network. It is assumed that any BlockIdentifier.Index less than or equal to CurrentBlockIdentifier.Index can be queried. If a Rosetta implementation prunes historical state, it should populate the optional `oldest_block_identifier` field with the oldest block available to query. If this is not populated, it is assumed that the `genesis_block_identifier` is the oldest queryable block. If a Rosetta implementation performs some pre-sync before it is possible to query blocks, sync_status should be populated so that clients can still monitor healthiness. Without this field, it may appear that the implementation is stuck syncing and needs to be terminated.
  - `current_block_identifier` BlockIdentifier, required — unresolved $ref
  - `current_block_timestamp` Timestamp, required — unresolved $ref
  - `genesis_block_identifier` BlockIdentifier, required — unresolved $ref
  - `oldest_block_identifier` BlockIdentifier — unresolved $ref
  - `sync_status` SyncStatus — unresolved $ref
  - `peers` Peer[] — unresolved $ref
