SCI trial. Demo or master node?

Hello,

I want to try this product. Do I need to install Demo or Master node?

What is the difference between these two?

As far as I understand I can install master node and it will have a built in 90 day license.

Hi @kessvn 

The SCI cluster consists of a Master node or Demo node. Alternatively, for demo or testing purposes, you can set up SCI as a single Demo node.
The cluster can be fully functional with just the Master node. The Data node is optional, as it only helps to scale the processing power and storage capacity of the cluster. The Demo node is a standalone node which cannot be used in a cluster with a Master node or Data node.

The Demo node must only be used for demo or testing purposes. This node has scaling and performance limitations and should not be used in a production environment. The Demo node can only support up to 200 APs.

SCI instance Master or Demo, comes with the default built-in licenses for 90 days.
