A machine in a Netmaker network, which is managed by the Netclient, is referred to as a Node, as you will see in the UI. A Node can be a VM, a bare metal server, a desktop computer, an IoT device, or any other number of internet-connected machines on which the netclient is installed. A node is simply an endpoint in the network, which can send traffic to all the other nodes, and recieve traffic from all of the other nodes.

SystemD systemd
------- -------
SystemD is a system service manager for a wide array of Linux operating systems. Not all Linux distributions have adopted systemd, but, for better or worse, it has become a fairly common standard in the Linux world. That said, any non-Linux operating system will not have systemd, and many Linux/Unix distributionshave alternative system service managers. systemd is a system service manager for a wide array of Linux operating systems.

Netmaker's netclient, the agent which controls networking on all nodes, can be run as a CLI or as a system daemon. On Linux, it runs as a daemon by default, and this requires systemd. As Netmaker evolves, systemd will become just one of the possible service management options, allowing the netclient to be run on a wider array of devices. However, for the time being, the netclient should be run "unmanaged" (netclient join -daemon=off) on systems that do not run systemd, and some other method can be used like a cron job or custom script.

As of 0.8, Mac and Windows are supported. On these operating systems, netclient launches the daemon using LaunchD and Windows Service, respectively, as opposed to SystemD.
