Configuration Steps

Below is the complete list of all the steps to follow until you can run the Demo example.

Pre-configured Demo

All the elements required to run the Demo are already configured and available in Acklio IPCore
You just need to click them, view the details and make some actions to learn how it works. You can edit them to rename them and/or specify your own settings such as your LNS server.
Go deeper in your knowledge of Acklio IPCore and configure your own flow by reading "Acklio IPCore v4 User Manual. A link to each appropriate page is provided at each step.

Common Steps

Steps 1️⃣, 2️⃣, 3️⃣ and 4️⃣ are common for all the Demo examples. They are described in the AT Modem UDP Client Configuration Steps.

5️⃣ Configure the Device Profile

Click the name my-flow in the list, then the Device profiles tab to access the list of device profiles associated to this flow.

Then, click the name [OPENSOURCE] UC3 - dlms to display the Device profile details page and check its settings. You can edit the page if you want.

Note that your access path to this page is visible above the page title.

The detail page provides three types of information:

• General information: A summary of the device profile such as the name and the last update.
• Settings: A summary of the settings and the name of the SCHC template "[OPENSOURCE] ipv6-udp-dlms" in particular.
• Template Prameters: A summary of the indices specified when creating the device profile.
  • Index #2 abcd:: is the IPv6 Prefix of the HES application.
  • Index #3 ::3 is the IPv6 IID of the HES application.
  • Index #4 33335 is the UDP port of the device.
  • Index #5 22224 is the UDP port of the HES application.
