# Authorize to Join Hypergraph or metagaph

## Before You Begin

You should now have access to the **Constellation Network Official Discord server** via an invite provided for Node Operators.

At this point, your VPS should be fully configured and operating as a **Constellation Validator Node**.

If you believe any steps were missed, please revisit the previous documents to ensure all required tasks are completed before moving forward.

## Constellation Network Official Discord Server

Return to or join the **Constellation Network Discord server**, and reach out to a Discord Administrator who holds the **Admin** or **Team Lead** role (visible next to their username).

{% hint style="danger" %}
**Important Security Reminder**

An Admin or Team Lead will **never** message you first, ask for money, request that you connect your wallet to third-party sites, or make any financial requests.
{% endhint %}

When contacting an Admin or Team Lead, be prepared to present your **Node ID** so they can submit it to the internal team for processing.  You may be required to confirm your email, this should only be confirmed by an Official Constellation Network Team Member.

## Stargazer Wallet

You will need to create and own a Stargazer Wallet

## Production Specific

In order to qualify to run a node on Constellation Network's production **MainNet Hypergraph** cluster, or **Dor metagraph cluster**, you will need to **collateralize** your node through your Stargazer wallet.&#x20;

<table><thead><tr><th width="144.27276611328125">Cluster Name</th><th width="202.6363525390625">Hypergraph or metagraph</th><th width="112.18182373046875">Token</th><th width="148.727294921875">Amount</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>MainNet</td><td>Hypergraph</td><td>$DAG</td><td>250,000</td></tr><tr><td>IntegrationNet</td><td>Hypergraph</td><td>$DAG</td><td>250,000</td></tr><tr><td>Dor</td><td>metagraph</td><td>$DOR</td><td>1,000,000</td></tr></tbody></table>

Please follow [this](/run-a-node/validator-node-guides/collateralize-your-node.md) guide to import your node’s wallet into your **Stargazer Wallet**, and transfer **$DAG** and or **$DOR** before attempting to join the cluster.

This step is required to meet the staking threshold and ensure your node is eligible for cluster participation.
