Introduction
This page is about a LoRaWAN gateway at RevSpace configured for The-Things-Network (TTN), kindly provided by Dave_O.
With this piece of hardware we are able to receive LoRaWAN packets and forward them to The Things Network.
The Things Network act as hub and collects all these packets from hundreds of receivers world-wide. Read more about their network on their wiki. Why do we "team up" with The Things Network? [1].
Hardware
It's a Kerlink, some essential properties:
- LoRaWAN EUI:
0000024B080606ACrevspace-kerlink - eth0 MAC address: 02:4B:08:06:06:AC
- Last known IPv4 in the RevSpace LAN: 10.42.45.15 (perhaps 10.42.43.95)
The gateway is currently mounted on top of the roof.
Configuration
Configuration files for TTN in general can be found in /mnt/fsuser-1/ttn-packet-forwarder
The gateway is configured for NTP in /etc/ntp.conf to use X.nl.pool.ntp.org where X goes from 0 to 3.
The gateway uses the packet forwarder.
