Chirpstack server

Installatie & Configuratie

De installatie en configuratie van de Chirpstack server is aan te raden om op een Linux distributie te doen. Chirpstack heeft op zich zelf niet erg veel resources nodig. Dit platform is namelijk ook getest op een Raspberry Pi 4 en dit werkte naar behoren.

Benodigdheden

• Linux distributie -> Ubuntu in dit voorbeeld
• Docker is geïnstalleerd
• Internet toegang

Installatie

Voor het gemak is het handig om de Chirpstack server een static IP te geven

git clone https://github.com/brocaar/chirpstack-docker.git

cd chirpstack-docker

sudo docker-compose up

network server stap <- TODO

sudo docker-compose down

Nu moet de chirpstack-gateway-bridge-configuratie aangepast worden:

cat ~/chirpstack-docker/configuration/chirpstack-gateway-bridge/chirpstack-gateway-bridge.toml
