Re: [kura-dev] Kura on Raspbian 2 with WLAN and HTTPS

["Binshtok, Ilya" <ilya.binshtok@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Christian,

I tried Edimax USB dongle on my Raspberry Pi 2 and it works. Here is what I am getting:

1. Use lsusb to see if Wifi stick is detected as USB device:

root@eurotech-pi:/home/pi# lsusb
Bus 001 Device 006: ID 7392:7318 Edimax Technology Co., Ltd
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 045e:00cb Microsoft Corp. Basic Optical Mouse v2.0
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 413c:2003 Dell Computer Corp. Keyboard
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0424:ec00 Standard Microsystems Corp. SMSC9512/9514 Fast Ethernet Adapter
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0424:9514 Standard Microsystems Corp.
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

2. Check if wlan0 interface is there:

root@eurotech-pi:/home/pi# ifconfig wlan0
wlan0     Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:1f:1f:55:62:12  
          inet addr:172.16.1.1  Bcast:172.16.1.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::21f:1fff:fe55:6212/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:38 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
          RX bytes:0 (0.0 B)  TX bytes:8260 (8.0 KiB)

3. Check WiFi mode. Note that Kura switched wifi to the Access Point mode by default.

root@eurotech-pi:/home/pi# iw dev wlan0 info
Interface wlan0
    ifindex 3
    wdev 0x1
    addr 00:1f:1f:55:62:12
    ssid kura_gateway_B8:27:EB:64:95:23
    type AP
    wiphy 0
    channel 1 (2412 MHz), width: 20 MHz (no HT), center1: 2412 MHz

or

root@eurotech-pi:/home/pi# iwconfig wlan0
wlan0     IEEE 802.11bg  Mode:Master  Tx-Power=20 dBm   
          Retry short limit:7   RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off
          Power Management:on

Please let me know what responses to above commands are you getting ...

Also, note that for Kura to run properly, the following packages must be installed:

sudo apt-get install telnet
sudo apt-get install dos2unix
sudo apt-get install ethtool
sudo apt-get install iw
sudo apt-get install bind9
sudo apt-get install hostapd
sudo apt-get install openvpn
sudo apt-get install isc-dhcp-server

Ilya

Subject: [kura-dev] Kura on Raspbian 2 with WLAN and HTTPS

 

Hi,

 

I want to use Kura in a big IoT Project in our Mill (Condition Monitoring).

Therefore we are planning to use Raspbian 2 with Kura as a Gateway.

 

On big point is to read sensors from places difficult to access so we need WLAN!!!

Using USB WLAN Sticks Edimax does not work…!!!

 

Can I also configure Kura WebUI only for HTTPS? How is this possible?

 

Thanks a lot.

 

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards
