227 == 3.1 Overview ==
228
229 The DLOS8N supports flexible network set up for different environments. This section describes the typical network topology. The network set up includes:
230
231 * **WAN Port Internet Mode**
232 * **WiFi Client Mode**
233 * **WiFi AP Mode**
234 * **Cellular Mode**
235
236 == 3.2 Use WAN port to access Internet ==
237
238 By default, the DLOS8N is set to use the WAN port to connect to an upstream network. When you connect the DLOS8N’s WAN port to an upstream router, DLOS8N will get an IP address from the router and have Internet access via the upstream router. The network status can be checked in the (% style="color:#4f81bd" %)**home page**:

412 11. Add a LoRaWAN End Device
413
414 This section shows how to add a LoRaWAN End device to a LoRaWAN network and see the data from TTN web site.
415
416
417 We use [[LT-22222-L>>url:http://www.dragino.com/products/lora-lorawan-end-node/item/156-lt-22222-l.html]] IO Controller as a reference device - the setup for other LoRaWAN devices will be similar.
418
419
420 [[image:file:///C:/Users/93456/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image034.jpg]]
421
422 **Step 1**: Create a Device definition in TTN v3 with the OTAA keys from the example LT-22222-L IO Controller device.
423
424
425 Three codes are required to define the device in TTN v3:
426
427 * DEV EUI - Unique ID code for a particular device.
428 * APP EUI - ID code for an Application defined in TTN v3.
429 * APP Key - Unique key to secure communications with a particular device.
430
431 A set of these codes are stored in each device by the manufacturer as the default codes for that particular device. Each device is shipped with a sticker with the default Device EUI as shown below.
432
433
434 [[image:file:///C:/Users/93456/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image035.png]]
435
436
437 Note: You may be able to change these codes in a device by using a configuration facility on the device e.g. the LT-22222 uses a serial port access and a series of AT commands.  Changing the codes may be necessary in the case where you have to use codes assigned by a LoRa WAN server.
438
439
440 For the TTN v3 server, you can use the codes set in the device as in the following example.
441
442
443 Select **Add Application** to open the screen below.
444
445 [[image:file:///C:/Users/93456/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image036.png]]
446
447 Open the **Application **select** Add end device**
448
449
450 Start Register the end device
451
452 [[image:file:///C:/Users/93456/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image037.png]]
453
454 Select OTAA activation mode
455
456
457 The LoRaWAN version for your device should be provided by the manufacturer in a datasheet as LoRaWAN version or LoRaWAN specification. The most commonly used LoRaWAN versions are v1.0.2 and v1.0.3.
458
459 [[image:file:///C:/Users/93456/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image038.png]]
460
461 First, input the End device ID, AppEUI and DevEUI.
462
463
464 [[image:file:///C:/Users/93456/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image039.png]]
465
466 Secondly, choose the corresponding frequency and LoRaWAN class capabilities.
467
468
469 [[image:file:///C:/Users/93456/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image040.png]]
470
471 Finally, Application layer settings input the corresponding AppKey. Before saving the configuration, check that the data matches the device.
472
473
474 **Step 2**: Power on LT-22222-L device and it will automatically join the TTN network. After joining successfully, it will start to upload messages to the TTN v3. Select the Live data tab and you will see the data appearing in the panel.
475
476
477 Note that it may take some time for the device data to appear in the TTN v3 display.

524 The DLOS8N can communicate with LoRaWAN ABP End Node without the need of LoRaWAN server. It can be used in some cases such as:
525
526 * No internet connection.
527 * User wants to get data forward in gateway and forward to their server based on MQTT/HTTP, etc. (Combine ABP communication method and [[MQTT forward together>>url:http://wiki.dragino.com/index.php?title=MQTT_Forward_Instruction]]).

794 1. Linux System
795
796 The DLOS8N is based on the OpenWrt Linux system. It is open source, and users are free to configure and modify the Linux settings.
797
798 1.
799 11. SSH Access for Linux console
800
801 User can access the Linux console via the SSH protocol. Make sure your PC and the DLOS8N are connected to the same network, then use a SSH tool (such as [[putty>>url:http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~~sgtatham/putty/download.html]] in Windows) to access it.
802
803
804 IP address:  IP address of DLOS8N
805
806 Port:         22 (via WiFi AP mode) or 2222 (via WAN Interface)
807
808 User Name:      **root**
809
810 Password:         **dragino** (default)
811
812
813 After logging in, you will be in the Linux console and can enter commands as shown below.

827 11. Edit and Transfer files
828
829 The DLOS8N supports the **SCP protocol** and has a built-in **SFTP server**. There are many ways to edit and transfer files using these protocols.
830
831
832 In Windows, one of the easiest methods is using the [[WinSCP>>url:https://winscp.net/eng/index.php]] utility.
833
834 After establishing access via WinSCP to the device, you can use an FTP style window to drag / drop files to the DLOS8N, or edit the files directly in the windows.
835
836
837 Screenshot is as below:

842 1.
843 11. File System
844
845 The DLOS8N has a 16MB flash and a 64MB RAM. The /var and /tmp directories are in the RAM, so contents stored in /tmp and /var will be erased after rebooting the device. Other directories are in the flash and will remain after reboot.
846
847
848 The Linux system uses around 8MB ~~10MB flash size which means there is not much room for user to store data in the DLOS8N flash.
849
850 You can use an external USB flash memory device to extend the size of flash memory for storage.
851
852
853

856 11. Package maintenance system
857
858 DLOS8N uses the OpenWrt [[OPKG package maint>>url:https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/techref/opkg]][[e>>url:https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/techref/opkg]][[n>>url:https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/techref/opkg]][[ance>>url:https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/techref/opkg]][[ system>>url:https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/techref/opkg]]. There are more than 3000+ packages available in our package server for users to install for their applications. For example, if you want to add the **//iperf //** tool, you can install the related packages and configure DLOS8N to use **//iperf //**.
859
860
861 Below are some example **//opkg //** commands. For more information please refer to the [[OPKG package maintain system>>url:https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/techref/opkg]]** **([[https:~~/~~/wiki.openwrt.org/doc/techref/opkg>>url:https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/techref/opkg]])
862
863
864 In Linux Console run:
865
866 **root@dragino-169d30:~~# opkg update**  ~/~/ to get the latest packages list
867
868 **root@dragino-169d30:~~# opkg list**         ~/~/shows the available packages
869
870 **root@dragino-169d30:~~# opkg install iperf **~/~/ install iperf
871
872 The system will automatically install the required packages as shown below.

908
909 Yes, You can make your own firmware for the DLOS8N for branding purposes or to add customized applications.
910
911 The source code and compile instructions can be found at: [[https:~~/~~/github.com/dragino/openwrt_lede-18.06>>url:https://github.com/dragino/openwrt_lede-18.06]]

915 11. Can I use 868Mhz version for 915Mhz bands?
916
917 It is possible but the distance will be very short, you can select US915 frequency band in 868Mhz version hardware. It will work but you will see the performance is greatly decreased because the 868Mhz version has an RF filter for band 863~~870Mhz, all other frequencies will have high attenuation.

959
960 [[image:file:///C:/Users/93456/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image067.png]]
961
962 The DLOS8N has a fall-back IP address on its WAN port. This IP is always enabled so you can use the fall-back IP to access DLOS8N no matter what the WiFi IP is. The fall back IP is useful for connecting and debug the unit.
963
964 (Note: fallback IP can be disabled in the WAN and DHCP page)
965
966
967 Steps to connect via fall back IP:
968
969 1. Connect PC’s Ethernet port to DLOS8N’s WAN port
970 1. Configure PC’s Ethernet port has
971 IP: 172.31.255.253 and
972 Netmask: 255.255.255.252
