# NordLayer application on Linux does not start on system start-up

By default, the application configures itself to start on system start-up in the last stages of the installation, but in case it did not or was accidentally disabled, please run these commands:

```
sudo systemctl enable nordlayer.socket
```

```
sudo systemctl enable nordlayer.service
```
