** {{Code|.sugar-network}} file;

** {{Code|master}} file with {{Code|api-testing.network.sugarlabs.org}} content, will be Master's GUID;

** {{Code|node}} file with arbitrary string content, will be Node's GUID.

* On a box that is intended to be a Node server; in ''Sweets Distribution'' Control Panel section, enable ''Behave as a Sugar Network server..'' checkbox (will require restarting Sugar Shell)~~; plug~~ Database media.

* On a box that is intended to be a Node server; in ''Sweets Distribution'' Control Panel section, enable ''Behave as a Sugar Network server..'' checkbox (will require restarting Sugar Shell).

* Plug prepared Database media.
