"The Things Gateway" basic network configuration

[arjanvanb (Arjan)]

When you attach an UART interface, you may get the following to work:

When you connect to both the RX and TX serial pins, you can also type help to get a list of commands you can execute.

@brocaar

you can then run help tcpip , help wifi etc to get more info.

As help tcpip shows the following, one can just enter those commands without the prefix:

*** netinfo: Get network information ***
*** defnet: Set default network interface ***
*** dhcp: DHCP client commands ***
*** dhcps: Turn DHCP server on/off ***
*** zcll: Turn ZCLL on/off ***
*** setip: Set IP address and mask ***
*** setgw: Set Gateway address ***
*** setdns: Set DNS address ***
*** setbios: Set host's NetBIOS name ***
*** setmac: Set MAC address ***
*** if: Bring an interface up/down ***
*** stack: Stack turn on/off ***
*** heapinfo: Check heap status ***
*** dhcpsinfo: Display DHCP Server Lease Details ***
*** ping: Ping an IP address ***
*** arp: ARP commands ***
*** dnsc: DNS client commands ***
*** macinfo: Check MAC statistics ***

Like: ping google.com

I’ve no idea if these actually work though, or how to persist any changes.
