1. A method using a commissioning logic to auto-commission one or more network components of a hierarchical window network in a building, the one or more network components including optically switchable windows, the method comprising:
(a) determining, for each of the optically switchable windows: (i) respective positional information comprising a respective set of physical coordinates and (ii) a respective network identification (ID), the optically switchable windows being installed in the building in accordance with an architectural plan and/or interconnect drawing of the hierarchical window network;
(b) pairing, with the commissioning logic, the respective positional information and the respective network ID determined in (a) with a corresponding physical and hierarchical position, identified in the architectural plan and/or the interconnect drawing; and
(c) storing, in a network configuration file, information describing the pairing.
