**1\. First of all, purchase a server from** [**AEZA**](https://aeza.net/?ref=583653)**,** [**Contabo**](https://contabo.com/en/) **or** [**Spacecore**](https://billing.spacecore.pro/billmgr?func=logon&redirect=from%3D56688)**.**

**Server specifications:**

• 6 vCPU Cores  
• 16 GB RAM  
• 400 GB SSD

**2\. Set up the server on your PC. Log in using the command** `root@ip.`

But before that, we recommend securing your server. [Read more in our article.](https://mirror.xyz/0x52277ABcbC9F8F71CdC7FFf2415c60040e2566d2/DwmqfcEe7XOfdCcVgkHXj5sjSHx_RncHEIrIFdA7Fw0)

**3\. Check the ports before installation.**
============================================

**The INK node uses the following ports:  
  
TCP ports:**   
8545  
8546  
30303  
9222  
7300

Before installing the node, make sure these ports are not in use.

**Example Usage: Installing the Node**
======================================

### **Step 1: Check the ports**

Check the ports before installation with `Command 1`.

### **Step 2: Install Node**

From the main menu, enter `2` to choose the **Install Node** option.

‼️ After that, the installation kicks off. It’s going to download a file that’s over 30 GB. Once unpacked, the node will need more than 70 GB, so make sure your server has at least 100 GB of storage for the INK node.

**🎉 Congrats, the node is installed!**

### **Step 3: Check Logs**

Enter `command 6 and then 7` and check the node logs.
