[META] Getting data out of the board

[pcppcp]

A very important part is a working network connection from the board to the outside world.

LoWPAN6 BLE connection

Our primary target

Pros:

• cool and wireless
• full network stack
• can use any linux PC as a gateway

Cons:

• hard to set up

PPP

network transport utilizing serial port. Not sure if it is possible to have more USB serial connections in Zephyr

Pros:

• full network stack
• compatible with most OS

Cons:

• not sure if there's a support for this network layer in Zephyr
• requires a USB connection

Mock script

For a quick demo we can set up a script reading data from the ttyACM serial line and sending them to our gateway/ethereum node/Leshan

Pros:

• easy to set up

Cons:

• no 2-way connection
• app specific

[pcppcp]

this example for 6lowpan connection from Zephyr works quite well, will investigate further

https://docs.zephyrproject.org/1.13.0/samples/bluetooth/ipsp/README.html

[pcppcp]

We will use 6lowpan (nrf52x) and SLIP (qemu) as the networking stack.

Hi! I know, this issue is closed, but I want to let you know my vision about it. Maybe could be a wise idea keeping decoupling between the Anyledger-Wallet C Library and the board or any OS, in this case Zephyr and have a new project to do this kind of demos.

Of course, we have no plans to be beholden to Zephyr or the board!
