# Chapter Eighteen: Understanding Your Lighting Setup
# Chapter 18: Understanding Your Lighting Setup
> :information_source: **NOTE:** This is a draft in progress, so that I can get some feedback from early reviewers. It is not yet ready for learning.
In this chapter you'll be ready to begin working with the `lightning-cli` command-line interface. But that first requires that you understand your c-lightning setup and its features, which is what will be explained with some examples and basic configuration.
For this and future chapters, we presume that you have a VPS with c-lightning installed, running `lightningd` courtersy of [Bitcoin Standup Scripts](https://github.com/BlockchainCommons/Bitcoin-Standup-Scripts) on Testnet.
The previous chapter concluded our work with Bitcoin proper, through CLI, scripting, and programming languages. However, there are many other utilities within the Bitcoin ecosystem: this chapter and the cover the largest. Here you'll begin work with the `lightning-cli` command-line interface, first by understanding c-lightning setup and its features — which is what will be explained with some examples and basic configuration.

* Demonstrate that their c-lightning Node is Installed and Up-to-date
