Connect the node to a 1GbE network using two RJ45 connectors.
Connect the node to a 10/25GbE network using two SFP28 or SFP+ cables.
Connect the node to a 1GbE network using an RJ45 connector in the IPMI port.
Connect both power cables to the node.
Plug the power cables to a suitable power outlet.
Press the power button at the front of the chassis.
