AURA NETWORK INSTALL

It is assumed that you have already upgraded your host and secured your ssh access and all ports.

We’re going to install the pre-requisites, then we’ll install and configure Go and finally we’ll install aurad, configure it and run it from our snapshot.

sudo apt install git build-essential ufw curl jq lz4 --yes
