Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 37
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 38 ## Application setup
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 39
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 40 To configure the example application, please:
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 41
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 42 1. [Select the connection type](#connection-type).
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 43 1. [Set the client credentials](#client-credentials).
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 44 1. [Change 6LoWPAN ND & Thread settings](#6lowpan-nd-and-thread-settings).
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 45 1. [Change Ethernet settings](#ethernet-settings).
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 46 1. [Change Wi-Fi settings](#wi-fi-settings).
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 47 1. [Set up an IP address](#ip-address-setup). This step is optional.
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 48 1. [Change the socket type](#changing-socket-type). This step is optional.
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 49
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 50 ### Connection type
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 51
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 52 The application uses Ethernet as the default connection type. To change the connection type, set one of them in `mbed_app.json`. For example, to enable 6LoWPAN ND mode:
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 53
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 54 ```json
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 55 "network-interface": {
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 56 "help": "options are ETHERNET,WIFI,MESH_LOWPAN_ND,MESH_THREAD.",
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 57 "value": "MESH_LOWPAN_ND"
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 58 }
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 59 ```
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 60
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 61 ### Client credentials
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 62
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 63 To register the application to the Connector service, you need to create and set the client side certificate.
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 64
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 65 1. Go to [mbed Device Connector](https://connector.mbed.com) and log in with your mbed account.
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 66 1. On mbed Device Connector, go to [My Devices > Security credentials](https://connector.mbed.com/#credentials) and click the **Get my device security credentials** button to get new credentials for your device.
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 67 1. Replace the contents in `security.h` of this project's directory with content copied above.
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 68
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 69 ### 6LoWPAN ND and Thread settings
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 70
Yogesh Pande 1:e06e899acba6 71 First you need to select the RF driver to be used by 6LoWPAN/Thread stack.
Yogesh Pande 1:e06e899acba6 72
Yogesh Pande 1:e06e899acba6 73 For example Atmel AT86RF233/212B driver is located in https://github.com/ARMmbed/atmel-rf-driver
Yogesh Pande 1:e06e899acba6 74
Yogesh Pande 1:e06e899acba6 75 To add that driver to you application from command line, call: `mbed add https://github.com/ARMmbed/atmel-rf-driver`
Yogesh Pande 1:e06e899acba6 76
Yogesh Pande 1:e06e899acba6 77 Then you need to enable the IPV6 functionality as the 6LoWPAN and Thread are part of IPv6 stack. Edit the `mbed_app.json` file to add `IPV6` feature:
Yogesh Pande 1:e06e899acba6 78
Yogesh Pande 1:e06e899acba6 79 ```
Yogesh Pande 1:e06e899acba6 80 "target.features_add": ["CLIENT", "IPV6", "COMMON_PAL"],
Yogesh Pande 1:e06e899acba6 81 ```
Yogesh Pande 1:e06e899acba6 82
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 83 6LoWPAN ND and Thread use IPv6 for connectivity. Therefore, you need to verify first that you have a working IPv6 connection. To do that, ping the Connector IPv6 address `2607:f0d0:2601:52::20` from your network.
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 84
mbed_official 6:8fff223f3f84 85 **NOTE:** If you are using [k64f-border-router](https://github.com/ARMmbed/k64f-border-router) (which can be used only as a 6LoWPAN BR and only with FRDM-K64F), you need to enable another security feature. By default, k64f-border-router uses `PSK` as security. You can either enable security here on your mbed-os-example-client application, e.g.,
mbed_official 6:8fff223f3f84 86
mbed_official 6:8fff223f3f84 87 ```json
mbed_official 6:8fff223f3f84 88 "target_overrides": {
mbed_official 6:8fff223f3f84 89 "*": {
mbed_official 6:8fff223f3f84 90 "mbed-mesh-api.6lowpan-nd-security-mode": "PSK",
mbed_official 6:8fff223f3f84 91 }
mbed_official 6:8fff223f3f84 92 }
mbed_official 6:8fff223f3f84 93 ```
mbed_official 6:8fff223f3f84 94 or you can remove link layer security from k64f-border-router. For doing that, change the [mbed_app.json](https://github.com/ARMmbed/k64f-border-router/blob/master/mbed_app.json) fetched from k64f-border-router repository, e.g.,
mbed_official 6:8fff223f3f84 95
mbed_official 6:8fff223f3f84 96 ```json
mbed_official 6:8fff223f3f84 97 "config": {
mbed_official 6:8fff223f3f84 98 "security-mode": "NONE",
mbed_official 6:8fff223f3f84 99 }
mbed_official 6:8fff223f3f84 100 ```
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 101 #### mbed gateway
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 102
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 103 To connect the example application in 6LoWPAN ND or Thread mode to Connector, you need to set up an mbed 6LoWPAN gateway router as follows:
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 104
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 105 1. Use an Ethernet cable to connect the mbed 6LoWPAN gateway router to the internet.
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 106 2. Use a micro-USB cable to connect the mbed 6LoWPAN gateway router to your computer. The computer will list the router as removable storage.
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 107 3. The firmware for the gateway is located in the `GW_Binary` folder in the root of this example. Select the binary matching your application bootstrap mode:
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 108
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 109 * For the **6LoWPAN ND** bootstrap, use `gateway6LoWPANDynamic.bin`.
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 110 * For the **Thread** bootstrap, use `gatewayThreadDynamic.bin`.
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 111
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 112 The dynamic binaries use IPv6 autoconfiguration and enable the client to connect to the Connector service. The static binaries create a site-local IPv6 network and packets cannot be routed outside.
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 113
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 114 4. Copy the gateway binary file to the mbed 6LoWPAN gateway router to flash the device. The device reboots automatically after flashing. If that does not happen, press the **Reset** button on the board.
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 115
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 116 You can view debug traces from the gateway with a serial port monitor. The gateway uses baud rate 460800. The gateway IPv6 address is correctly configured when the following trace is visible: `Eth bootstrap ready, IP=XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX`.
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 117
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 118 #### Channel settings
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 119
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 120 The default 2.4GHz channel settings are already defined by the [mbed-mesh-api](https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbed-mesh-api) to match the mbed gateway settings. The application can override these settings by adding them to the `mbed_app.json` file in the main project directory. For example:
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 121
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 122 ```json
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 123 "target_overrides": {
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 124 "*": {
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 125 "mbed-mesh-api.6lowpan-nd-channel-page": 0,
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 126 "mbed-mesh-api.6lowpan-nd-channel": 12,
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 127 "mbed-mesh-api.thread-config-channel-page": 0,
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 128 "mbed-mesh-api.thread-config-channel": 12
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 129 }
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 130 }
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 131 ```
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 132
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 133 For sub-GHz shields (AT86RF212B) use the following overrides, **6LoWPAN ND only**:
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 134
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 135 ```json
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 136 "mbed-mesh-api.6lowpan-nd-channel-page": 2,
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 137 "mbed-mesh-api.6lowpan-nd-channel": 1
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 138 ```
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 139
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 140 For more information about the radio shields, see [the related documentation](docs/radio_module_identify.md). All the configurable settings can be found in the `mbed-os-example-client/mbed-os/features/FEATURE_IPV6/mbed-mesh-api/mbed_lib.json` file.
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 141
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 142 #### Thread-specific settings
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 143
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 144 With Thread, you can change the operating mode of the client from the default router mode to a sleepy end device by adding the following override to the `mbed_app.json` file:
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 145
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 146 ```json
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 147 "mbed-mesh-api.thread-device-type": "MESH_DEVICE_TYPE_THREAD_SLEEPY_END_DEVICE"
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 148 ```
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 149
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 150 ### Ethernet settings

Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 158
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 159 The example application uses ESP8266 WiFi Interface for managing the wireless connectivity. To run this application using WiFi, you need:
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 160
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 161 1. An [ESP8266](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ESP8266) WiFi module
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 162 1. Updated [Espressif Firmware](https://developer.mbed.org/teams/ESP8266/wiki/Firmware-Update)
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 163 1. Mount the WiFi module onto [K64F Grove Shield v2](https://developer.mbed.org/platforms/FRDM-K64F/#supported-seeed-studio-grove-extension)
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 164 1. Attach the shield on the K64F board.
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 165 1. In the `mbed_app.json` file, change
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 166 ```json
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 167 "network-interface": {
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 168 "help": "options are ETHERNET,WIFI,MESH_LOWPAN_ND,MESH_THREAD.",
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 169 "value": "WIFI"
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 170 }
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 171 ```
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 172
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 173 Provide your WiFi SSID and password here and leave `\"` in the beginning and end of your SSID and password (as shown in the example below). Otherwise, the example cannot pick up the SSID and password in correct format.
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 174 ```json
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 175 "wifi-ssid": {

Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 184
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 185 ### IP address setup
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 186
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 187 This example uses IPv4 to communicate with the [mbed Device Connector Server](https://api.connector.mbed.com) except for 6LoWPAN ND and Thread. The example program should automatically get an IPv4 address from the router when connected over Ethernet.
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 188
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 189 If your network does not have DHCP enabled, you have to manually assign a static IP address to the board. We recommend having DHCP enabled to make everything run smoothly.
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 190
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 191 ### Changing socket type
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 192
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 193 Your device can connect to mbed Device Connector via UDP or TCP binding mode. The default is UDP. The binding mode cannot be changed in 6LoWPAN ND or Thread mode.
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 194
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 195 To change the binding mode:
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 196
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 197 1. In the `simpleclient.h` file, find the parameter `SOCKET_MODE`. The default is `M2MInterface::UDP`.
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 198 1. To switch to TCP, change it to `M2MInterface::TCP`.
Yogesh Pande 0:7d5ec759888b 199 1. Rebuild and flash the application.
