Registration

Registration into Fermah AVS as an Operator.

Our registration process calls into our Registry Coordinator and attemps to register Fermah as an AVS for your EL Operator.

Prerequisites

When running the following command, make sure you replace:

• OPERATOR with your operator name, in lowercase
