* '''Master server'''<br>Main Sugar Network server accessible via the Internet. Each Master server has public API url. This tutorial is using http://api-testing.network.sugarlabs.org to refer to testing Sugar Network Master launched on Sugar Labs server.

* '''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]]. If regular Sugar box will be a Node, enable ''Behave as a Sugar Network server..'' check-box (will require restarting Sugar Shell) in ''Sweets Distribution'' Control Panel section.

* '''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.
