+# GitBook Assets
+
+This directory contains images and other assets used in the IPC GitBook documentation.
+
+## Usage
+
+When adding images to GitBook documentation:
+
+1. Save images to this directory with descriptive names
+2. Use lowercase with hyphens for filenames (e.g., `ipc-testnet-metamask.png`)
+3. Reference images in markdown using the relative path: `.gitbook/assets/filename.png`
+
+## Current Assets
+
+- `ipc-testnet-metamask.png` - MetaMask configuration screenshot for IPC Chain Testnet
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- Use PNG format for screenshots
+- Use JPG format for photos
+- Optimize images for web (compress when possible)
+- Use descriptive filenames that indicate the content
+- Keep images organized and remove unused assets

-### Filecoin Calibration Network
+## IPC Chain Testnet
+
+The IPC Chain Testnet (also known as "IPC Cal") is a public testnet specifically designed for testing IPC features and subnet deployments. This network provides a dedicated environment for developers to experiment with IPC functionality.
+
+The params to connect to IPC Chain Testnet are:
+
+* **Network Name**: IPC Cal
+* **RPC URL**: `http://node-1.test.ipc.space:8545`
+* **Chain ID**: `385401`
+* **Currency Symbol**: `tFIL`
+
+For a step-by-step guide on connecting to this network with MetaMask, see [Connecting to IPC Chain Testnet](../user-guides/connect-to-testnet.md).
+
+## Filecoin Calibration Network
 
 The [Filecoin Calibration network](https://docs.filecoin.io/networks/calibration) is the most realistic testnet simulation of the Filecoin mainnet. As the largest decentralized storage network, applications that require data storage and retrieval can leverage Filecoin's storage capabilities by connecting an IPC subnet to the Calibration net as the parent network.

+
+# Connecting to IPC Chain Testnet
+
+The IPC Chain Testnet (also known as "IPC Cal") is a public testnet where you can experiment with IPC features, deploy smart contracts, and test your applications before moving to production.
+
+## Network Details
+
+The IPC Chain Testnet has the following parameters:
+
+* **Network Name**: IPC Cal
+* **RPC URL**: `http://node-1.test.ipc.space:8545`
+* **Chain ID**: `385401`
+* **Currency Symbol**: `tFIL`
+* **Block Explorer**: _Coming soon_
+
+## Adding IPC Chain Testnet to MetaMask
+
+Follow these steps to add the IPC Chain Testnet to your MetaMask wallet:
+
+### Step 1: Open MetaMask Network Settings
+
+1. Open your MetaMask extension
+2. Click on the network dropdown at the top of MetaMask
+3. Click "Add network" or "Add a network manually"
+
+### Step 2: Enter Network Details
+
+Enter the following information in the network configuration form:
+
+![IPC Chain Testnet Configuration](.gitbook/assets/ipc-testnet-metamask.png)
+
+* **Network name**: `IPC Cal`
+* **New RPC URL**: `http://node-1.test.ipc.space:8545`
+* **Chain ID**: `385401`
+* **Currency symbol**: `tFIL`
+* **Block explorer URL**: _(Leave empty for now)_
+
+### Step 3: Save and Switch
+
+1. Click "Save" to add the network
+2. MetaMask will automatically switch to the IPC Chain Testnet
+3. You should now see "IPC Cal" as your active network
+
+## Getting Test Tokens
+
+To interact with the IPC Chain Testnet, you'll need test tFIL tokens.
+
+{% hint style="info" %}
+A testnet faucet will be made available soon. In the meantime, please reach out to the IPC team for test tokens.
+{% endhint %}
+
+## Verifying Your Connection
+
+Once connected, you can verify your connection by:
+
+1. Checking that your MetaMask shows "IPC Cal" as the active network
+2. Your account balance should display in tFIL
+3. Try sending a small test transaction to confirm the connection is working
+
+## Next Steps
+
+Now that you're connected to the IPC Chain Testnet, you can:
+
+* Deploy smart contracts using Remix or Hardhat
+* Interact with existing IPC subnet contracts
+* Test cross-subnet communication features
+* Explore IPC-specific functionality
+
+For more information on deploying and interacting with subnets, see:
+
+* [Deploy a subnet](../quickstarts/deploy-a-subnet.md)
+* [Performing transactions in a subnet](performing-transactions-in-a-subnet.md)
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Connection Issues
+
+If you're having trouble connecting to the testnet:
+
+* Ensure you've entered the RPC URL correctly: `http://node-1.test.ipc.space:8545`
+* Check that the Chain ID is exactly `385401`
+* Try refreshing MetaMask or restarting your browser
+
+### Transaction Failures
+
+If transactions are failing:
+
+* Verify you have sufficient tFIL for gas fees
+* Check the network status - the testnet may be undergoing maintenance
+* Ensure you're connected to the correct network (IPC Cal)
+
+For additional help, see the [Troubleshooting guide](../reference/troubleshooting.md) or reach out to the IPC community.
