Installing Context broker GE in Fiware

I try to install the Orion Context Broker, I first registered an account in Fiware Lab, but the user guide says that I need to get and run the token_script.sh in order to get a token, I have no idea what this means.

In FIWARE Lab you can either deploy an instance of CentOS with Orion Context Broker already installed, or a fresh one on which to install it yourself. Which way are you doing it?

You only need a token if you want to connect to a public instance of Orion, such as the one in Santander (see this for more info on that).

The way it works is that you get a token (you need a FIWARE account, which you already have) using that script, and then use it in succesive calls to the Orion API.

Bottom line: if you just want to check out Orion Context Broker you don't need any tokens. Just set up your Orion VM in the cloud (Cloud tab in FIWARE Lab, orion-psb-R4.1 image). If you want to access Orion Context Broker deployed in a publicly accesible instance (such as the one in Santander) then you would need a token.
