Will borderrouter support Fedora 22？ about ot-br-posix HOT 21 CLOSED

I think so.

Fedora uses rpm other than dpkg as package manager, dependencies cannot be installed through script/bootstrap. However, I think you may add scripts to install dependencies with rpm within install_packages_rpm() in script/bootstrap.

The code itself doesn't depend on dpkg. After filling the scripts to install dependencies, it may build successfully following the README.md.

from ot-br-posix.

It's worth noting that according to the Artik 5 datasheet the current 520 module uses the EM3587, which is not supported by OpenThread nor does it use the open standardized Spinel protocol.

from ot-br-posix.

That's ture that current 520 module uses the EM3587。
Actually we have a plan to use CC2538 which is supported by OpenThread connected with ARTIK520 using /dev/ttyUSB0.
How do you think?

from ot-br-posix.

Ya, that should work if you follow @bukepo's suggestion.

from ot-br-posix.

Thanks for your reply.
With @bukepo's suggestion, I modify the bootstrap scripts and it seems that all the dependencies are successfully installed(including CppUTest and uncrustify-0.64);
Running setup scripts, below error occurs (with root):

could you please run these scripts with a normal user whose has sudo privilege? These scripts will run sudo to get root access when needed.

from ot-br-posix.

Thanks, I will have a try.

Hi bukepo，I have tried running the scripts with normal user "usr". Unfortunately,I still meat the problem below:

Anything else could I have a try? Is it possible to share with the correct bootstrap and setup log file?

from ot-br-posix.

I tried on fedora 22, finding that how fedora manages tayga is quite different from debian-based system. Are you going to use NAT64? If not, you may comment out the lines in scripts handling NAT64 configuration.
Here's the changes I made to make script/setup work.

However, if you are going to use NAT64, you may have to manually configure tayga(refer to https://github.com/openthread/borderrouter/wiki/NAT64)for the moment, or you may refine the script script/_nat64 to support handling tayga in fedora.

from ot-br-posix.

@bukepo Thanks for your advice.
Now it seems that the wpantund,otbr-web,otbr-agent has been successfully started(I also checked with systemctl)

From https://github.com/openthread/borderrouter/wiki/NAT64), I am wondering how to get access to Thread Board Router Agent through a PC or mobile phone?
1.Where to configure the server address?
2.Is there any example Andoind smart phone application?

from ot-br-posix.

Could you please tell me more about your requirement? Do you mean how to configure address for NAT64 service?
Thread group provides a android app for commissioning. Is that what you are looking for?

from ot-br-posix.

@bukepo Thanks for your quckily reply.

1. Assume that I have successfully running board router on my artik5 with cc2538 working as NCP connnected, I want to use the Web GUI to manage Thread network as metioned in https://github.com/openthread/borderrouter/wiki. What am I supposed to do?
   2.Yes. Android app for commissioning (from Thread Group) is what I am looking for. I will check with Thead Group. By the way, Could this commissioning app work with openthread board router?

from ot-br-posix.

1. You should use the ethernet or WiFi IP address to access the web gui. You may check if the border router's 80 port is listening.
2. Yes, openthread border router works with the latest commissioner app from Thread Group.

@bukepo
When I try to complie the NCP firmware for CC2538. I got the below problem with the latest openthread:
"automake: command not found",but I do installed the automake which version is 1.14.1.

@leomvp527, do you have libtool installed?

from ot-br-posix.

@bukepo
I complie the latest openthread with “make -f examples/Makefile-cc2538 TMF_PROXY=1 BORDER_ROUTER=1 DISABLE_DOC=1 JOINER=1” and download the ot-ncp-ftd.bin to CC2538DK。Then connected to ARTIK5，but I have not seen any ttyUSB* through “sudo dmesg | grep ttyUSB*”。But when checking with “cat /sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices”，message showed as below

from ot-br-posix.

Is there any ttyACM*? You may also refer to https://github.com/contiki-os/contiki/tree/master/platform/cc2538dk#drivers

from ot-br-posix.

@bukepo
Thanks for your support.
Now it works, we could use board router runing on artik with cc2538 connected to creat a network working as a leader, and then a thread node joins this network successfully.
Could this environment used to test Thread Board Router function according the thread test spec?
And we also have a plan to develop a sample application, any advice shared with me?

from ot-br-posix.

Glad to hear that!

When testing communication between Thread network and external network, please make sure the the default route and On-Mesh prefix are properly configured in the Web GUI, more discussion on this can be found here

Besides, are you willing to submit a pull request to share your work on bringing up border router on fedora?

from ot-br-posix.

@bukepo
Thanks for your help.
Personally, I am willing to do so. But I am afraid that company's security policy does not allow me to submit a pull request. I am really sorry for this. If some guys who have problems depolying board router on Fedora, you could @ me and I am glad to help.

from ot-br-posix.

I submitted the PR to install dependencies through yum or dfn.
