Does the mbed gateway support Thread commissioning?

@artokin could you answer to this?

mikter commented 7 years ago

Thread stack of the mbed-os-example-client supports all Commissioner commands according to thread specification.

6loWPAN gateway does not support commissioning. border router in https://github.com/ARMmbed/thread-testapp-private supports commissioning and can be used as commissioner for testing purposes.

@JanneKiiskila needs to answer any mbed gateway commissioning support in cloud services

JanneKiiskila commented 7 years ago

Hi,

All cloud client and cloud stuff is not-network-specific and as such doesn't support any comissioning. I do not think it's even in the scope for that.

@stevew817 - please confirm if this answers your question enough or if you need something more?

stevew817 commented 7 years ago

My question was specific to the mbed gateway hardware as made by Firefly. As far as I can see, there are only binaries provided for it, which appear to have no way of configuring the BR to be a Thread commissioner?

mikter commented 7 years ago

you are right that binary and hardware does not have possibility to act as commissioner.

JanneKiiskila commented 7 years ago

I believe you need to have the mbedOS partner license / agreement in place in order to access the mesh networking sources - after that you can compile the SW in any way you want.

I consider this case now to be handled and with your kind permission I would like to close this issue, would you agree?

stevew817 commented 7 years ago

@JanneKiiskila We have a partner agreement, but even with source there is no way for us currently to compile thread-testapp-private for the Firefly gateway. Is that something that will still be coming, or should I give up on using the gateway as a commissioner?

TuomoHautamaki commented 7 years ago

Currently we don't have plans to provide commissioning support for mbed 6LoWPAN Gateway. Please try k64f with thread-testapp-private.

Understood. You can close the ticket.
