# Nodes

Erebrus Nodes empower a distributed, secure, and scalable network, enabling users to share compute, storage, and connectivity while earning rewards. Each node serves a distinct function, forming a robust ecosystem for AI, VPN, and high-performance workloads.

1. Astro Node – A lightweight, client-mode node that allows users to deploy AI agents and host light weight webapp services locally. It enables resource sharing while earning rewards through staking, operating without a static IP.
2. Beacon Node – A decentralized VPN gateway, running as a Docker container with a static IP. It allows clients to connect securely and does not require a node license, making it a simple yet essential entry point into the network.
3. Nexus Node – A full-scale orchestrator that requires a domain and static IP. It manages VPN access, firewalls, DNS assignment, and production app deployment for global connectivity. Running a Nexus Node requires staking and a node license.
4. Titan Node – A high-performance compute node designed for AI model execution, GPU workloads, and intensive applications. It requires a powerful workstation with a static IP and necessitates staking and a node license.
5. Zenith Node – A private enterprise-grade VPN network designed for businesses. It establishes a secure, last-mile firewall and VPN infrastructure, deployable on-premises or in the cloud. No staking is required, but a license fee applies, with additional monthly fees for NetSepio cloud deployments.
