235 1. Typical Network Setup
236 11. Overview
237
238 The DLOS8N supports flexible network set up for different environments. This section describes the typical network topology. The network set up includes:
239
240 * **WAN Port Internet Mode**
241 * **WiFi Client Mode**
242 * **WiFi AP Mode**
243 * **Cellular Mode**
244
245 1.
246 11. Use WAN port to access Internet
247
248 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 **home page**:
249
250

428 11. Add a LoRaWAN End Device
429
430 This section shows how to add a LoRaWAN End device to a LoRaWAN network and see the data from TTN web site.
431
432
433 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.
434
435
436 [[image:file:///C:/Users/93456/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image034.jpg]]
437
438 **Step 1**: Create a Device definition in TTN v3 with the OTAA keys from the example LT-22222-L IO Controller device.
439
440
441 Three codes are required to define the device in TTN v3:
442
443 * DEV EUI - Unique ID code for a particular device.
444 * APP EUI - ID code for an Application defined in TTN v3.
445 * APP Key - Unique key to secure communications with a particular device.
446
447 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.
448
449
450 [[image:file:///C:/Users/93456/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image035.png]]
451
452
453 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.
454
455
456 For the TTN v3 server, you can use the codes set in the device as in the following example.
457
458
459 Select **Add Application** to open the screen below.
460
461 [[image:file:///C:/Users/93456/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image036.png]]
462
463 Open the **Application **select** Add end device**
464
465
466 Start Register the end device
467
468 [[image:file:///C:/Users/93456/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image037.png]]
469
470 Select OTAA activation mode
471
472
473 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.
474
475 [[image:file:///C:/Users/93456/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image038.png]]
476
477 First, input the End device ID, AppEUI and DevEUI.
478
479
480 [[image:file:///C:/Users/93456/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image039.png]]
481
482 Secondly, choose the corresponding frequency and LoRaWAN class capabilities.
483
484
485 [[image:file:///C:/Users/93456/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image040.png]]
486
487 Finally, Application layer settings input the corresponding AppKey. Before saving the configuration, check that the data matches the device.
488
489
490 **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.
491
492
493 Note that it may take some time for the device data to appear in the TTN v3 display.

812 The DLOS8N is based on the OpenWrt Linux system. It is open source, and users are free to configure and modify the Linux settings.
813
814 1.
815 11. SSH Access for Linux console
816
817 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.
818
819
820 IP address:  IP address of DLOS8N
821
822 Port:         22 (via WiFi AP mode) or 2222 (via WAN Interface)
823
824 User Name:      **root**
825
826 Password:         **dragino** (default)
827

843 11. Edit and Transfer files
844
845 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.
846
847
848 In Windows, one of the easiest methods is using the [[WinSCP>>url:https://winscp.net/eng/index.php]] utility.
849
850 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.
851
852
853 Screenshot is as below:

858 1.
859 11. File System
860
861 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.
862
863
864 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.
865
866 You can use an external USB flash memory device to extend the size of flash memory for storage.
867
868
869

872 11. Package maintenance system
873
874 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 //**.
875
876
877 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]])
878
879
880 In Linux Console run:
881
882 **root@dragino-169d30:~~# opkg update**  ~/~/ to get the latest packages list
883
884 **root@dragino-169d30:~~# opkg list**         ~/~/shows the available packages
885
886 **root@dragino-169d30:~~# opkg install iperf **~/~/ install iperf
887
888 The system will automatically install the required packages as shown below.

924 11. Can I make my own firmware for the gateway, where can I find the source code?
925
926 Yes, You can make your own firmware for the DLOS8N for branding purposes or to add customized applications.
927
928 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]]

930
931 1.
932 11. Can I use 868Mhz version for 915Mhz bands?
933
934 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.

939 1. Trouble Shooting
940 11. I get kernel error when install new package, how to fix?
941
942 In some cases, when installing a package with **//opkg//**, it will generate a kernel error such as below due to a mismatch I the kernel ID:
943
944
945 root@dragino-16c538:~~# opkg install kmod-dragino2-si3217x_3.10.49+0.2-1_ar71xx.ipk
946
947 Installing kmod-dragino2-si3217x (3.10.49+0.2-1) to root…
948
949 Collected errors:
950
951 ~* satisfy_dependencies_for: Cannot satisfy the following dependencies for kmod-dragino2-si3217x:
952
953 *      kernel (= 3.10.49-1-4917516478a753314254643facdf360a) *
954
955 ~* opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package kmod-dragino2-si3217x.
956

976
977 [[image:file:///C:/Users/93456/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image067.png]]
978
979 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.
980
981 (Note: fallback IP can be disabled in the WAN and DHCP page)
982
983
984 Steps to connect via fall back IP:
985
986 1. Connect PC’s Ethernet port to DLOS8N’s WAN port
987 1. Configure PC’s Ethernet port has
988 IP: 172.31.255.253 and
989 Netmask: 255.255.255.252
