LoRaWAN network interface
The LoRaWANInterface provides a C++ API for connecting to the internet over a LoRa network. This subsection explains the LoRaWANInterface
API reference and then presents an example that you can directly import to the Arm Mbed Online Compiler.
To configure this class, please see the LoRa configuration documentation.
