A cell phone and/or table app will be created that can register an Edge Node (Scenario One A) or Edge Device (Scenario Two), onboard that device to an Open Horizon exchange running on a farm gateway machine (Scenario One C), and configure that node or device. Additionally, it should be able to re-configure an already-onboarded node or device. It should also be able to decommission a node or device (unregister).
