Chirpstack LoRaWAN Network Server in OptixEdge

Description
Deploying a Chirpstack LoRaWAN Network Server in the Optix Edge! This is possible to the work by Orne Brocaar developing this amazing stack and the adaptation by Carter Gray to be able to run in the Optix Edge. You have it running in 5 minutes with Docker and Portainer. Get ready to register your gateways and sensors to boost your next IIoT projects.

(00:01) Hi everyone. In this video, I will show you how to install a chipstack L1 network server in the optics edge. Uh for those who does not know lot of one uh it allows you to connect any sensor um for instance a power meter via Modbus RTU to a Modbus to LA one converter or any Lor one sensor to a L1 gateway pointing through Ethernet.
(00:42) to the optics edge where you have running uh LA one network server that allows you to register different gateways as a concentrators and different sensors. This is done with uh docker and proteiner. And let me show you how to do this. You enter in the optics edge In the portainer section here we have all the docker containers responsible of the chip stack network server and you can enter in to create this you can go to stacks create a new stack give a name for instance this one and paste the content from this
(01:52) file. This is the repository developed by Carter Ray. So you can open this file, copy the contents of this AML file and then go to your web editor here and paste. You have all needed steps to perform this development, this deployment. Then you can just deploy the stack. Once you do this, you’ll have all the running containers here.
(02:40) Have to wait a little until you can enter to this chark server on this port. Okay. So we go to the optics edge IP address with port 8080 and you will see this great dark network server to start adding your gateways, adding your devices and um decoding the payload for your IoT uh applications even you could store the sensor data in a database with optics for instance.
(03:36) So this is all I hope you enjoy. Thank you very much.
