1. Introduction
The Dragino LoRaWAN gateway can communicate with LORIOT LoRaWAN Network Server:
Below list the products and requirements that support communication with LORIOT using Semtech UDP:
1. LoRaWAN Gateway model: LPS8, LG308, DLOS8
2. Firmware version since :LG02_LG08--build-v5.4.1590459021-20200526-1012
2. Gateway Registration for Semtech UDP
2.1 Step 1: Get Gateway ETH0 MAC Address
Dragino LoRaWAN gateway uses ETH0 MAC address to generate Gateway EUI to communicate with LORIOT, The user needs to find the ETH0 MAC in the "System -> System Overview" menu.
2.2 Step 2: Register Gateway
Choose gateway model
Special reminder: If the user does not find the gateway Model, then git --> Packet Forwarder Semtech can be selected
Enter the ETH0 MAC of the gateway
2.3 Step 3: Back to Semtech UDP page
Back to the page of Semtech UDP check the secondary server settings and click the button of Save&Apply.

2.5 Trouble Shooting
User can check the station log in the LogRead --> System Log page.
and recode the station log in the LogRead --> Recode Log page.
3. Gateways are connected using LORIOT software
3.1 Step 1: Get Gateway ETH0 MAC Address
Dragino LoRaWAN gateway use ETH0 MAC address to generate Gateway ID to communicate with LORIOT, User can get the ETH0 MAC address from SSH access and run ifconfig command.
Get ETH0 MAC address
Note: To make set up more friendly, the ETH0 will show on the LORIOT page in a new firmware version.
3.2 Step 2: Choose LORIOT service
Choose to use LORIOT as LoRaWAN service provider
Install and choose the LORIOT server to be used
3.3 Step 3: Checking Connection Status
Click to Home page and check the connection status

Choose server
Create a New Network
Create a New Network
Create a New Network
3.5 Step 5: Register the gateway
Register the Gateway in LORIOT
Choose LG308 as gateway model
Choose LG308 as gateway model
Input Gateway ETH0 address
Choose SX1301 Reference and use SPI protocol
Choose the right Frequency Band and input location
Set up regional settings.
3.6 Step 6: Check Connection
LORIOT will show disconnect if Gateway doesn't connect
LORIOT will show connect if Gateway connect to LORIOT ok.
