Installation procedure for Browan Femto
Installation requirements
- The gateway starts a WIFI network, you must use it to connect with ssh, the internal firewall will not allow you external access.
- You need to have the root password, by default it is
browan@<last 6 MAC digits>(take care, it is case sensitive). - In case of problems, you might have to use an FTDI cable to directly connect on the box, but this requires soldering pins.
- You need to have an external USB key, our recommendation is SanDisk USB 2/USB 3, > 1GB (already tested with SanDisk USB 3 at 16GB).
- Installation is a 2-step process:
- Installation of a new firmware on the gateway.
- Installation of ThingPark Enterprise All-in-One software.
- You must have:
- the new firmware: tao-gemfemto-firmware-1.2.0.bin
- the ThingPark Enterprise All-in-One installer: TAO_gemtek.GMTK_FMTO.1_1.3.1
Connecting to the gateway
The Gateway creates a WIFI network (SSID:
AP-<last 6 hexa digit of the MAC>)- Connect your pc to the Wi-Fi network
- You should get an IP like 192.168.55.xxx, the IP address of the Gateway is 192.168.55.1
- SSH on this Gateway IP, password is
browan@<last 6 hexa digit of the MAC> - Stop the firewall
/etc/init.d/firewall stopThe Gateway must be connected on your LAN using the RJ45 port.
- Get the IP address of the Gateway (on eth0.2)
ip a | grep eth0.2
USB key preparation (ext4 fs)
Insert you key on a PC, running linux.
Check the device, /dev/sdb1 in our case.
Format the key (mkfs)
root@actility:/home/actility# mkfs -t ext4 /dev/sdb1
mke2fs 1.45.5 (07-Jan-2020)
/dev/sdb1 contains a ext4 file system
