11) Generate Keys

1) Create 3 initial keys on the  Master of Ceremony node using the scripts from https://github.com/poanetwork/poa-scripts-moc/tree/core:
1
git clone https://github.com/poanetwork/poa-scripts-moc.git
2
cd poa-scripts-moc
Copied!
2) Modify KEYS_MANAGER_ADDRESS in poa-network-consensus-contracts/contracts.json and the abi [] section (poa-network-consensus-contracts/build/contracts/KeysManager.json) of the KeysManager contract inside the root config.json file.

The generated keys (json keystores and their passwords) will be saved into the output directory.
3) The Master of Ceremony adds initial keys into the Certifier contract so that each validator can complete a transaction registering the primary keys (mining + voting + payout).
Call the certify method with _who = 0xINITIAL_KEY_ADDRESS for each initial key using the MyCrypto method.​
