1. **Accessing the Network Switch Option**:

   * If you are not already on the Sepolia Testnet, a pop-up will prompt you to switch.

2. **Selecting Sepolia Testnet**:

   * Once you have accessed the network options, click on "Show Test Networks"
   * From the list, select "Sepolia"

3. **Manual Configuration (If Required)**:
   * If Sepolia Testnet is not available by default in your wallet, you can add it manually using the following parameters:
     * **Name**: Sepolia Test Network
     * **Chain ID**: 11155111
     * **RPC URL**: `https://sepolia.infura.io/v3/`

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://vesselfinance.gitbook.io/vessel/testnet-user-guide/switching-network.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
