OTBR-Docker in combination with a network device
Hello,
I have a question regarding the OTBR docker.
On the internet I find many instructions how to realize Matter-over-Thread with a SLZB-06 in Home Assistant. Unfortunately, I run Home Assistant in a Docker, so I cannot use the OTBR integration via the add-on. Fortunately, there is the Docker image provided here :)
How is it possible to add the SLZB-06 as a network device (like in the Home Assistant add-on?
I found OTBR add-on configuration list:
- device
- baudrate
- flow_control
- autoflash_firmware
- otbr_log_level
- firewall
- net64
- network_device
With the following command i know how to use the config "device" and "baurate": --radio-url spinel+hdlc+uart:///dev/ttyACM0?uart-baudrate=460800
But how i can use the others?
I would appreciate an answer.
Best regards Hammy
I would reach out to the Home Assistant community of SLZB-06 vendor directly.
OpenThread is designed to interface with a radio co-processor (RCP) using a standard serial protocol. So the specific serial port settings depends on the specific firmware that the RCP is running.
Hi @hammy1988 , did you ever work this out? I have the same question.
You have it all on the help:
Usage: otbr-agent [-I interfaceName] [-B backboneIfName] [-d DEBUG_LEVEL] [-v] [-s] [--auto-attach[=0/1]] RADIO_URL [RADIO_URL]
-I, --thread-ifname Name of the Thread network interface (default: wpan0).
-B, --backbone-ifname Name of the backbone network interfaces (can be specified multiple times).
-d, --debug-level The log level (EMERG=0, ALERT=1, CRIT=2, ERR=3, WARNING=4, NOTICE=5, INFO=6, DEBUG=7).
-v, --verbose Enable verbose logging.
-s, --syslog-disable Disable syslog and print to standard out.
-h, --help Show this help text.
-V, --version Print the application's version and exit.
--radio-version Print the radio coprocessor version and exit.
--auto-attach Whether or not to automatically attach to the saved network (default: 1).
--rest-listen-address Network address to listen on for the REST API (default: [::]).
--rest-listen-port Network port to listen on for the REST API (default: 8081).
RadioURL:
Radio Url format: {Protocol}://${PATH_TO_DEVICE}?${Parameters}
Protocol=[spinel+hdlc*] Specify the Spinel interface as the Spinel HDLC interface
forkpty-arg[=argument string] Command line arguments for subprocess, can be repeated.
spinel+hdlc+uart://${PATH_TO_UART_DEVICE}?${Parameters} for real uart device
spinel+hdlc+forkpty://${PATH_TO_UART_DEVICE}?${Parameters} for forking a pty subprocess.
Parameters:
uart-parity[=even|odd] Uart parity config, optional.
uart-stop[=number-of-bits] Uart stop bit, default is 1.
uart-baudrate[=baudrate] Uart baud rate, default is 115200.
uart-flow-control Enable flow control, disabled by default.
uart-init-deassert Deassert lines on init when flow control is disabled.
uart-reset Reset connection after hard resetting RCP(USB CDC ACM).
region[=region-code] Set the radio's region code. The region code must be an
ISO 3166 alpha-2 code.
cca-threshold[=dbm] Set the radio's CCA ED threshold in dBm measured at antenna connector.
enable-coex[=1|0] If not specified, RCP coex operates with its default configuration.
Disable coex with 0, and enable it with other values.
fem-lnagain[=dbm] Set the Rx LNA gain in dBm of the external FEM.
no-reset Do not send Spinel reset command to RCP on initialization.
skip-rcp-compatibility-check Skip checking RCP API version and capabilities during initialization.
bus-latency[=usec] Communication latency in usec, default is 0.
You just have to chain params with an "&" between them.
example:
--radio-url spinel+hdlc+uart:///dev/ttyACM0?uart-baudrate=460800&uart-stop=16
Some more generic params are loaded from environment variables such as FIREWALL or WEB_GUI.
