# OpenThread command line example ## Overview This example demonstrates an [OpenThread border router](https://openthread.io/guides/border-router). ## How to use example ### Hardware connection To run this example, it's used to use an DevKit C board and connect PIN4 and PIN5 to the UART TX and RX port of another 15.4 capable radio co-processor ([RCP](https://openthread.io/platforms/co-processor?hl=en)) ### Configure the project ``` idf.py menuconfig ``` You need to configure the `CONFIG_EXAMPLE_WIFI_SSID` and `CONFIG_EXAMPLE_WIFI_PASSWORD` with your access point's ssid and psk. ### Build, Flash, and Run Build the project and flash it to the board, then run monitor tool to view serial output: ``` idf.py -p PORT build flash monitor ``` ## Example Output ```bash I (2729) esp_netif_handlers: example_connect: sta ip: 192.168.1.100, mask: 255.255.255.0, gw: 192.168.1.1 I (2729) example_connect: Got IPv4 event: Interface "example_connect: sta" address: 192.168.1.100 I (3729) example_connect: Got IPv6 event: Interface "example_connect: sta" address: fe80:0000:0000:0000:266f:28ff:fe80:2920, type: ESP_IP6_ADDR_IS_LINK_LOCAL I (3729) example_connect: Connected to example_connect: sta I (3739) example_connect: - IPv4 address: 192.168.1.100 I (3739) example_connect: - IPv6 address: fe80:0000:0000:0000:266f:28ff:fe80:2920, type: ESP_IP6_ADDR_IS_LINK_LOCAL ......

You can find the guide to build and run ot-commissioner [here](https://openthread.io/guides/commissioner/build). Make sure to configure the same PSKc as the one in sdkconfig in ot-commisioner's config file `non-ccm-config.json` ### Connect the commissioner to the border router Note that the target address `192.168.1.100` shall match the actual WiFi IP address of the device. ``` bash $ commissioner-cli /usr/local/etc/commissioner/non-ccm-config.json > start 192.168.1.100 49154 [done] > active true [done] ``` You can also verify the commissioner connection from the border router's log: ``` I(59709) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-MESH-CP-: DTLS started I(65469) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-MESH-CP-: Commissioner connected I(65479) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-MESH-CP-: Forwarded request to leader on c/lp I(65489) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-MESH-CP-: received petition I(65489) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-MESH-CP-: sent petition response I(65489) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-MESH-CP-: commissioner accepted: session ID=3077, ALOC=fd04:b642:9ba9:fcdc:0:ff:fe00:fc35 I(65499) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-MESH-CP-: Sent to commissioner I(65509) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-CORE----: Notifier: StateChanged (0x00000201) [Ip6+ NetData] I(65529) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-BBR-----: PBBR state: None I(65539) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-BBR-----: Domain Prefix: ::/0, state: None I(65559) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-MESH-CP-: Forwarded request to leader on c/ag W(65559) OPENTHREAD:[WARN]-MESH-CP-: Failed to notify commissioner on ProxyRx (c/ur): DestinationAddressFiltered I(65579) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-MESH-CP-: sent active dataset get response to fd04:b642:9ba9:fcdc:0:ff:fe00:c800 W(65579) OPENTHREAD:[WARN]-MESH-CP-: Failed to notify commissioner on ProxyRx (c/ur): DestinationAddressFiltered I(65589) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-MESH-CP-: Sent to commissioner I(65629) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-MESH-CP-: Forwarded request to leader on c/ag W(65629) OPENTHREAD:[WARN]-MESH-CP-: Failed to notify commissioner on ProxyRx (c/ur): DestinationAddressFiltered I(65649) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-MESH-CP-: sent active dataset get response to fd04:b642:9ba9:fcdc:0:ff:fe00:c800 W(65649) OPENTHREAD:[WARN]-MESH-CP-: Failed to notify commissioner on ProxyRx (c/ur): DestinationAddressFiltered I(65659) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-MESH-CP-: Sent to commissioner I(65689) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-MESH-CP-: Proxy transmit sent to fd04:b642:9ba9:fcdc:0:ff:fe00:fc00 W(65689) OPENTHREAD:[WARN]-MESH-CP-: Failed to notify commissioner on ProxyRx (c/ur): DestinationAddressFiltered I(65699) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-MESH-CP-: sent pending dataset get response to fd04:b642:9ba9:fcdc:0:ff:fe00:fc35 I(65709) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-MESH-CP-: Sent to commissioner on c/ur I(65749) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-MESH-CP-: Proxy transmit sent to fd04:b642:9ba9:fcdc:0:ff:fe00:fc00 W(65749) OPENTHREAD:[WARN]-MESH-CP-: Failed to notify commissioner on ProxyRx (c/ur): DestinationAddressFiltered I(65759) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-MESH-CP-: sent commissioning dataset set response I(65769) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-MESH-CP-: Sent to commissioner on c/ur I(65769) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-CORE----: Notifier: StateChanged (0x00000200) [NetData] I(65789) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-BBR-----: PBBR state: None ``` ### Commission the joiner In the OT commissioner cli, run: ``` bash > joiner enableall meshcop J01NU5 [done] > ``` In the joining device's cli, run: ```bash > ifconfig up Done > joiner start J01NU5 Done > Join success! > thread start Done ``` You can also find these log lines in the border router: ``` I(531219) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-MESH-CP-: Received relay transmit I(531229) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-MESH-CP-: Received kek I(531279) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-MAC-----: Sent IPv6 UDP msg, len:85, chksum:14a0, to:92335c4b320830fb, sec:no, prio:net I(531279) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-MAC-----: src:[fe80:0:0:0:ac2f:720a:6fe4:c837]:1000 I(531289) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-MAC-----: dst:[fe80:0:0:0:9033:5c4b:3208:30fb]:1000 I(531299) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-MESH-CP-: Sending JOIN_ENT.ntf I(531299) OPENTHREAD:[INFO]-MESH-CP-: Sent joiner entrust length = 161 ......
