This guide will not explain how to use ttnctl for this, please head here. Before starting you should know that ttnctl can interact with any TTN/TTI server, it is only a matter of configuration. The standard configuration point to the European region server.
Create a file called .ttnctl.yml in your home directory and fill it with the following information:
auth-server: https://account.<domain_id>.thethings.industries allow-insecure: false data: /home/<user_name>/.ttnctl router-id: <domain_id>-router mqtt-address: <domain_id>.thethings.industries:1883 handler-id: <domain_id>-handler discovery-address: <domain_id>.thethings.industries:1900 |
Now ttnctl is configured to use your private network !
For windows user make sure to use the --config flag with the full path to the confifuration file
|
Login:
ttnctl user login [access_code] |
You are now login on your private network ! You should now see a folder named /.ttnctl in your home directory with private files. Make sure this are protected.
The following steps aren't necessary if you don't plan on using the public network |
Create a file called community.yml in /home/<user_name>/.ttnctl/ with the following (for other region use the respective region name instead of eu):
data: /home/neugdae/.ttnctl/community discovery-address: discover.thethingsnetwork.org:1900 allow-insecure: false mqtt-address: eu.thethings.network:1883 gateway-id: dev router-id: ttn-router-eu auth-server: https://account.thethingsnetwork.org handler-id: ttn-handler-eu |
Login:
ttnctl --config /home/<user_name>/.ttnctl/community.yml user login [access_code] |
Define an alias on ttnctl --config /home/<user_name>/.ttnctl/community.yml to go faster ! |
