My question is how do I configure an Antminer S9 to connect to bfgminer to mine to Bitcoin Core.

My current S9 settings are:

URL:  http://127.0.0.1:3333
worker:btc
password: !@##$$%%


Why are you using 127.0.0.1 as your URL, this will redirect the miner to itself, you need to use the IP address of the machine that hosts your node, you also need to check if port 3333 is the correct port set on your miner software.

Is this for experimental purposes? because it would be a terrible idea if you are doing this as a business or even as a hobby.

If you want to solo mine why not use https://solo.ckpool.org/ so that you don't need to host and wait to download almost 500gb blockchain?
I never heard someone succeed in mine solo with their own node unless you run your own pool.

If you want an open-source pool then you can check this one https://github.com/tpruvot/yiimp
So that you have your own stratum mining pool and I'm sure it will work to mine solo.

I want to mine to a Bitcoin Core .21.0 full node.  The Bitcoin Core node is running and fully synced. Bfgminer 5.5.0 is also up and running as a proxy and waiting for a device to connect.

My question is how do I configure an Antminer S9 to connect to bfgminer to mine to Bitcoin Core.

My current S9 settings are:

URL:  http://127.0.0.1:3333
worker:btc
password: !@##$$%%

Any help with configuring an Antminer S9 to solo mine to bitcoind is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
