R-MESH Enable

Set up the compilation environment, and run ameba.py menuconfig to access the configuration interface, then configure as follows:

----Connectivity config----
CONFIG WHC INTF  --->
CONFIG WIFI  --->
   ...
   [*]     Enable R-mesh
   [ ]         Enable R-NAT
   [ ]         Enable R-mesh Socket
   [ ]             Enable R-mesh OTA
...

Open {sdk}/component/soc/usrcfg/amebaxxx/ameba_wificfg.c and set the following parameter:

wifi_user_config.wtn_en = 1;

For additional settings, please refer to Common

RNAT Enable

Note

Skip this step if RNAT functionality is not required.
Before enabling RNAT, you must first enable R-Mesh

Open {sdk}/component/soc/usrcfg/amebaxxx/ameba_wificfg.c and set the following parameter:

wifi_user_config.wtn_rnat_en = 1;

To designate the node as a permanent RNAT node, set this parameter:

wifi_user_config.wtn_fixed_rnat_node = 1;

Note

Required in current version as automatic RNAT selection is under development.

Set up the compilation environment, and run ameba.py menuconfig to access the configuration interface, then configure as follows:

----Connectivity config----
CONFIG WHC INTF  --->
CONFIG WIFI  --->
   ...
   [*]     Enable R-mesh
   [*]         Enable R-NAT
   [ ]         Enable R-mesh Socket
   [ ]             Enable R-mesh OTA
...
CONFIG LWIP  --->
   ...
   [*] Enable NAT REPEATER
...

For additional RNAT settings, please refer to RNAT Parameters

Enable R-MESH Socket Feature

Set up the compilation environment, and run ameba.py menuconfig to access the configuration interface, then configure as follows:

----Connectivity config----
CONFIG WHC INTF  --->
CONFIG WIFI  --->
   ...
   [*]     Enable R-mesh
   [*]         Enable R-NAT
   [*]         Enable R-mesh Socket
   [ ]             Enable R-mesh OTA
...

Note

R-Mesh Socket option is required to work with the Gravitation tool. If you do not need the Gravitation tool in your actual use case, don’t set this.
