Step 2.1 Open your system ports

A good practice for security would be to close all the ports on your system and then open only the required ports. Below is the list of ports to be opened:

Execution client: 30303 tcp/udp
Lighthouse: 9001 tcp/udp
Prysm: 13000 tcp and 12000 udp

Step 2.2 Move to home directory on your terminal and ensure you not on the root user

Change directory to home directory using the command: cd ~

Note: Please avoid running the commands directly from the root. Always run it from a user. Follow the below steps to exit If your terminal is running from root

Use the exit command to come out of root user and then
Use cd ~ command to change the directory to home directory.

Step 2.3 Create a new directory on your terminal

Create a new directory using mkdir ~/bin command

To manage your node, you will need Stader CLI (command-line interface). Download stader CLI using the commands provided in the below doc for your respective system architecture.
