# OpenThread Border Router Example
## Overview
This example demonstrates an [OpenThread border router](https://openthread.io/guides/border-router).
## How to use example
### Hardware Required
The following SoCs are required to run this example:
* An ESP32 series Wi-Fi SoC (ESP32, ESP32-C, ESP32-S, etc) loaded with this ot_br example.
* An ESP32-H2 802.15.4 SoC loaded with [ot_rcp](../ot_rcp) example.
* Another ESP32-H2 SoC loaded with [ot_cli](../ot_cli) example. Enable `OPENTHREAD_JOINER` option in menuconfig before compiling the example.
Connect the two SoCs via UART, below is an example setup with ESP32 DevKitC and ESP32-H2 DevKitC:

GND | G
GPIO4 | TX
GPIO5 | RX
### Configure the project
```
idf.py menuconfig
```
Two ways are provided to setup the Thread Border Router in this example:
- Auto Start
Enable `OPENTHREAD_BR_AUTO_START`, configure the `CONFIG_EXAMPLE_WIFI_SSID` and `CONFIG_EXAMPLE_WIFI_PASSWORD` with your access point's ssid and psk.
The device will connect to Wi-Fi and form a Thread network automatically after bootup.
- Manual mode
Disable `OPENTHREAD_BR_AUTO_START` and enable `OPENTHREAD_CLI_ESP_EXTENSION`. `wifi` command will be added for connecting the device to the Wi-Fi network.
### 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
```
If the `OPENTHREAD_BR_AUTO_START` option is enabled, The device will be connected to the configured Wi-Fi and Thread network automatically then act as the border router.
Otherwise, you need to manually configure the networks with CLI commands.
`wifi` command can be used to configure the Wi-Fi network.
```bash
> wifi
--wifi parameter---
connect
-s : wifi ssid
-p : wifi psk
---example---
join a wifi:
ssid: threadcertAP
psk: threadcertAP : wifi connect -s threadcertAP -p threadcertAP
state : get wifi state, disconnect or connect
---example---
get wifi state : wifi state
Done
```
To join a Wi-Fi network, please use the `wifi connect` command:
```bash
> wifi connect -s threadcertAP -p threadcertAP
ssid: threadcertAP
psk: threadcertAP

wifi sta is connected successfully
Done
```
To get the state of the Wi-Fi network:
```bash
> wifi state
connected
Done
```
For forming the Thread network, please refer to the [ot_cli_README](../ot_cli/README.md).
## Example Output
```bash

```
## Bidirectional IPv6 connectivity
The border router will automatically publish the prefix and the route table rule to the Wi-Fi network via ICMPv6 router advertisement packages.
### Host configuration
The automatically configure your host's route table rules you need to set these sysctl options:
Please replace `wlan0` with the real name of your Wi-Fi network interface.
```
sudo sysctl -w net/ipv6/conf/wlan0/accept_ra=2
sudo sysctl -w net/ipv6/conf/wlan0/accept_ra_rt_info_max_plen=128
```
For mobile devices, the route table rules will be automatically configured after iOS 14 and Android 8.1.
### Testing IPv6 connectivity
Now in the Thread end device, check the IP addresses:
```
> ipaddr
fde6:75ff:def4:3bc3:9e9e:3ef:4245:28b5
fdde:ad00:beef:0:0:ff:fe00:c402
fdde:ad00:beef:0:ad4a:9a9a:3cd6:e423
fe80:0:0:0:f011:2951:569e:9c4a
```
You'll notice an IPv6 global prefix with only on address assigned under it. This is the routable address of this Thread node.
You can ping this address on your host:
``` bash
$ ping fde6:75ff:def4:3bc3:9e9e:3ef:4245:28b5
PING fde6:75ff:def4:3bc3:9e9e:3ef:4245:28b5(fde6:75ff:def4:3bc3:9e9e:3ef:4245:28b5) 56 data bytes
64 bytes from fde6:75ff:def4:3bc3:9e9e:3ef:4245:28b5: icmp_seq=1 ttl=63 time=459 ms
64 bytes from fde6:75ff:def4:3bc3:9e9e:3ef:4245:28b5: icmp_seq=2 ttl=63 time=109 ms
64 bytes from fde6:75ff:def4:3bc3:9e9e:3ef:4245:28b5: icmp_seq=3 ttl=63 time=119 ms
64 bytes from fde6:75ff:def4:3bc3:9e9e:3ef:4245:28b5: icmp_seq=4 ttl=63 time=117 ms
```
## Service discovery
The newly introduced service registration protocol([SRP](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-dnssd-srp-10)) allows devices in the Thread network to register a service. The border router will forward the service to the Wi-Fi network via mDNS.
### Publish the service using SRP
Now we'll publish the service `my-service._test._udp` with hostname `test0` and port 12345
```
> srp client host name test0
Done
> srp client host address fde6:75ff:def4:3bc3:9e9e:3ef:4245:28b5
Done
> srp client service add my-service _test._udp 12345
Done
> srp client autostart enable
Done
```
This service will also become visible on the Wi-Fi network:
```bash
$ avahi-browse -r _test._udp -t
+ enp1s0 IPv6 my-service _test._udp local
= enp1s0 IPv6 my-service _test._udp local
hostname = [test0.local]
address = [fde6:75ff:def4:3bc3:9e9e:3ef:4245:28b5]
port = [12345]
txt = []
+ enp1s0 IPv4 my-service _test._udp local
= enp1s0 IPv4 my-service _test._udp local
hostname = [test0.local]
address = [fde6:75ff:def4:3bc3:9e9e:3ef:4245:28b5]
port = [12345]
txt = []
```
### Discovery delegate
First, the service `testhost._test._udp` need to be published using `avahi-publish-service` on the Wi-Fi network(for example Host).
```bash
$ avahi-publish-service testhost _test._udp 12345 test=1 dn="aabbbb"
```
Then get the border router's OMR prefix global unicast address(or ML-EID), and configure it on the Thread end device.
On the border router:
```
> ipaddr
fdde:ad00:beef:0:0:ff:fe00:fc10
fd9b:347f:93f7:1:1003:8f00:bcc1:3038
fdde:ad00:beef:0:0:ff:fe00:fc00
fdde:ad00:beef:0:0:ff:fe00:b800
fdde:ad00:beef:0:f891:287:866:776
fe80:0:0:0:77:bca6:6079:785b
Done
```
On the Thread end device:
```
> dns config fd9b:347f:93f7:1:1003:8f00:bcc1:3038
(or
> dns config fdde:ad00:beef:0:f891:287:866:776)
Done
```
Now the service published on the Host can be discovered on the Thread end device.
```
> dns resolve FA001208.default.service.arpa.
DNS response for FA001208.default.service.arpa. - fdde:ad00:beef:cafe:b939:26be:7516:b87e TTL:120
