Setup

1. We will store all our Network Manager related software in a NetworkManager/ directory. Note you can store this wherever you like (or name it whatever you like)

3. Install the required Python packages with your pip utility;

   $ cd DustyPyManager
   $ python -m pip install -r requirements.txt
   

4. Install the SmartMesh SDK for Python

   Download the smartmesh-sdk from DustCloud Github and extract it into NetworkManager/

5. Configure your AWS CLI environment

   $ aws configure
