The console does this automatically
It is worth noting that with https://github.com/TheThingsNetwork/lorawan-stack/pull/4673 the Console now displays only valid mac-phy combinations based on selected frequency plan
Summary
To specify the correct MAC & PHY Version combinations to the users and also to specify which are currently supported by The Things Stack.
Why do we need this ?
It will help users to avoid the misconfiguration of MAC and PHY versions while creating the device.
What is already there? What do you see now?
Documentation on adding devices. Ref: https://www.thethingsindustries.com/docs/devices/adding-devices/
What is missing? What do you want to see?
Info conveying the correct MAC & PHY version combinations and also specify which are currently supported by The Things Stack and which are in pipeline.
Ref: https://github.com/TheThingsNetwork/lorawan-stack/issues/2784
MAC Layer logic for LoRaWAN 1.0.4 is implemented in The Things Stack. But, the corresponding PHY version is not implemented yet and is in our pipeline. It is recommended to wait for it to be implemented before users can upgrade/test their sensor to LoRaWAN 1.0.4 in The Things Stack. Ref: https://github.com/TheThingsNetwork/lorawan-stack/issues/3513
Though there is a condition dropdown of the MAC & PHY configuration while adding a device via console, it would give more clarity to users if we add this info.
