Xiaoye 3.1 12 The LPS8-V2 of Dragino LoRaWAN gateway can communicate with LoRaWAN ABP End Node, the working is based on the built-in server TTN-Stack.
Xiaoye 2.1 13
Xiaoling 30.2 14 **It can be used in some cases such as:**
Xiaoye 3.1 15
Xiaoye 2.1 16 * No internet connection.
17 * Users want to get data forward in the gateway and forward it to their server based on MQTT/HTTP.
Xiaoye 3.1 18 * Forward the data to the built-in Application server Node-Red.
19 * Just storing the data on the gateway or external storage

22
Xiaoye 2.1 23 1. LoRaWAN End Node in ABP mode. Make sure your end node works in this mode. End node most are default set to OTAA mode
24 1. LoRaWAN Gateway model: LPS8-V2

Kilight Cao 23.1 188
Xiaoling 30.3 189 (% style="color:red" %)**Note**: **Remember that the format of this topic for The Things Stack Open Source deployment would be (v3/<application_name>/devices/<devices_name>/down/push).**

194 Instead of /push, you can also use /replace to replace the downlink queue. Replacing with an empty array clears the downlink queue. Example:
