Setup an IoT enabled Linux host

  • difficulty: low
  • complexity: low

Description

The objective of this exercise is to setup an IoT enabled Linux host using standard, open IoT technologies and protocols. Wireless communication will be based on IEEE 802.15.4 and 6LoWPAN/IPv6.

Instructions

  1. Setup a Raspberry Pi with the latest Raspbian Linux release 1.
  2. Build and install the Linux WPAN tools 2, 3.
  3. Install network sniffer command line tools, i.e., tshark.
  4. Configure a WPAN monitor interface with default channel (see below).
  5. Setup and start a RIOT node that can answer ICMPv6 ping requests
  6. Run a network sniffer to detect the link local IPv6 address of the RIOT node.
  7. Configure a LoWPAN network interface with default parameters (see below).
  8. Send several pings to the RIOT node on its link local IPv6 address.

Document all your actions and findings.
