* '''Node servers'''<br>Local Sugar Network servers that are intended to be distributed versions of the Master. This tutorial assumes that Nodes don't have direct connection to the Master, and the only one way to synchronize data is the [[wikipedia:Sneakernet|Sneakernet]].

* '''Clients'''<br>Users connected to one of Node server via Intranet, e.g., wireless Ad-hoc connection. In server-less environment, users restricted only to content they already downloaded from the server.
* '''Database media'''<br>Node servers might store database on removable devices (makes sense if Nodes are XO laptops), in that case, such devices should have a magic file, named {{Code|.sugar-network}}, in the root directory on removable device. Having this magic file will let Node's software auto detect recently plugged removable device as a Database media to start behaving correspondingly.
