* The plan is to do things in steps
* First we only need rudimentary access, at that level we only need to be able to connect our laptops to the router and ssh from there
* At some point it could be ideal to put the cluster behind login.uib and then we'd need to configure ssh differently
* But there are "unknown unknowns" so it is not known which final solution is viable and most optimal
* We could end up with more or less the current setup as the final setup, a bit more polished of course, but we can't know for sure yet
* For instance when a user wants to start from scratch, s/he needs to format the sd cards and possibly connect to the router/switch with a cable, it all depends on what we can achieve
* [PXE booting](https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/hardware/raspberrypi/bootmodes/net.md) is possible for instance, it would be cool to try it out, but it requires some fiddling to make it work, and fiddling is fragile
