2. Also set `remoteit_enabled: True` in /etc/iiab/local_vars.yml
(And verify that `remoteit_install: True` is set.)
3. If your [IIAB software](https://download.iiab.io/) is not yet installed, do that e.g. by running `sudo iiab` and following any on-screen instructions &mdash; until "INTERNET-IN-A-BOX (IIAB) SOFTWARE INSTALL IS COMPLETE" eventually appears on screen.

When that's complete, skip to Step 5.
