====== Install or upgrade a gateway on WMC ======

The connection to the Wanesy Management Center requires several software packages to be installed:

  * **Packet Forwarder and companion HAL**: required to process LoRa packets.
  * **BSCC and SNMP**: required to handle software upgrades, gateway monitoring, etc.
  * **OpenVPN package**: required to establish the VPN between the gateway and the WMC
  * An up-to-date **firmware**

To ease the process, a //megapackage// can be used to install/upgrade everything except for the OpenVPN package, which is always delivered separately.

This megapackage preserves any change to your current network configuration (VPN and GSM/ETH configuration).

This megapackage can be used as well remotely (from WMC dashboard for instance) and locally (USB, debug link, SSH).

===== Prerequisites ======

==== Generic ====

   - It is **recommended** to have a DHCP server on your local network. The use of static IP can lead to a connection issue to the WMC.
   - It is **mandatory** to update the OpenVPN package to v1.11 before using the megapackage

If you never installed any OpenVPN package on your gateway, or if you need a newer VPN package version, you should ask for a VPN package to ''support@kerlink.fr'' and install it on your system.

==== Wirnet iBTS and Wirnet iFemtoCell ====

Use the following command to check the currently installed packages (example shows iBTS):

<code bash>
root@klk-lpbs-123456:~ # opkg list-installed
bscc - v2.2.1                                   # <------ BSCC package version
kerlink-openvpn-config-pki2-klk-lpbs-123456 - 1.11-180326
keros - 3.1.16-0-gfd3610aa
libloragw2 - 5.1.0-klk1
lorasnmp - v2.2.1                               # <------ SNMP package version
spf2 - 4.0.0-klk7_4.0.1-klk3
</code>

==== Wirnet Station ====

<note warning>DO NOT USE THE MEGAPACKAGE IF YOUR FIRMWARE VERSION IS LOWER THAN v3.1</note>

To check this, you must have a ''FILESYSTEM_VER'' ending with either ''1.5'' (firmware 3.1) or ''1.10'' (firmware 3.3). This can be found in the result of ''get_version -u -v'' (see below).

If you have a 2.x firmware, please use the ''[[http://wikikerlink.fr/lora-station/doku.php?id=wiki:resources_wirnet_v_3.1|create_dota_2x_wirnet3.sh]]'' script to migrate to v3.1 firmware version

Please run the following command on your Wirnet Station:

<code bash>
[root@Wirnet_0XXXXXXX ~]# get_version -u -v
KERNEL_VER=3.10.104-3.10.104-klk7
PIC_VER=8.3
BOOTSTRAP_VER=""
UBOOT_VER="U-Boot 2009.03-2009.03-klk1 (Jan 26 2018 - 12:04:27)"
SCRIPT_VER=v1.0
INITRAMFS_VER=v1.3
FILESYSTEM_VER=2016.05v1.10                                # <---- firmware version
KNETD_VER="wirma2_v4.09 WAN_3.16 (Dec 23 2016-14:33:40)"

===== Software packages =====

Several methods are available to install the software. Please see the software installation and upgrade compatibility matrix below:

^ Method                       ^    Install from scratch     ^               Upgrade                ^
| WMC drag'n'drop feature      |             no              |                  yes                 |
| WMC workflow                 |             no              |      yes (except for VPN package)    |
| Over SSH                     |            yes              |                  yes                 |
| USB stick                    |            yes              |                  yes                 |

The WMC upgrade is only available for a gateway that is already connected to the WMC dashboard. The VPN package should NEVER be sent to several gateways at once, so please don't use it in workflows.

WMC software can be delivered as one single megapackage, or as individual packages. Please refer to the table below to pick the preferred method:

^                  ^                       Megapackage                   ^^                    Individual packages                               ^^
^  Upgrade method  ^     Wirnet Station     ^ KerOS (iBTS and iFemtoCell) ^    Wirnet Station                  ^     KerOS (iBTS and iFemtoCell)  ^
| WMC drag'n'drop  | from firmware 3.x only |              yes            |  yes, except firmware (3)          |                yes               |
| WMC workflow     | from firmware 3.x only |              yes            |  yes, except firmware (3) and VPN  |                yes               |
| USB (1)          | from firmware 3.x only |              yes            |            yes                     |                yes               |
| SSH (2)          | from firmware 3.x only |              yes            |  yes, except firmware (3)          |                yes               |

Notes:

  - For USB install/upgrade, an USB autorun script is required. 
    Then follow the following procedure for SSH
  - For SSH install/upgrade:
    - On Wirnet Station, install the ''.tar.gz'' DOTA.
    - On KerOS (iBTS and iFemtoCell), uncompress the ''.tar.gz'' TWICE (if applicable) and install the ''.ipk'' packages.
  - For individual packages (e.g. not the megapackage) on Wirnet Station, the firmware remote upgrade is not possible. Only BSCC, SNMP, Packet Forwarder and HAL can be installed over SSH/WMC. For firmware upgrades, please use USB.

==== WMC drag'n'drop feature ====

This can be used to download one software package (individual or megapackage) to the gateway.

  - Go to //BSC//, //Stations//
  - Select your station
  - Choose //Software// > //Upgrade// from the top menu

{{ images:bsc_stations_sw_upgrade.png }}

==== WMC workflows ====

The workflows can be used to install software on many gateways at once.

<note warning>
Never install an OpenVPN package using workflows.

Indeed, each OpenVPN package is unique and should never be deployed on several gateways.
</note>

To upgrade several gateways:

  - Add all the desired gateways to your cart.
  - Go to your cart.
  - Choose the //Execute workflow// action from the top menu.
  - Pick the //FW upgrade// workflow.
  - Choose the software package and execute the workflow.

{{ images:bsc_stations_workflow_sw_upgrade.png }}

==== USB/SSH or install from scratch ====

For USB and SSH install and upgrade instructions, please find below an outlook of the procedures below.

<note>
For detailed instructions, please refer to product specific documentation:

  * [[http://wikikerlink.fr/lora-station/doku.php?id=wiki:resources|Wirnet Station]]
  * [[http://wikikerlink.fr/wirnet-ibts/doku.php?id=wiki:sw_updates|Wirnet iBTS]]
  * [[http://wikikerlink.fr/wirnet-ifemtocell/doku.php?id=wirnet-ifemtocell:software_updates|Wirnet iFemtoCell]]
</note>

=== Wirnet Station ===

  * For SSH: place the megapackage in ''/mnt/fuser-1/dota'' and reboot the device. Repeat for the OpenVPN ''.tar.gz'' package.
  * For USB: place the megapackage on your USB stick, and add the ''usbkey.txt'' and ''produsb.sh'' files. Plug the USB stick and wait for a few minutes.

=== Keros systems (Wirnet iBTS and Wirnet iFemtoCell) ===

If the software is in a megapackage, please uncompress it first:

<code bash>
# Run on your computer
tar xzf *ran_gateway*.tar.gz
</code>

Then,

  * For SSH: place the ''.ipk'' files in ''/user/.updates''. If your system is pristine, you might need to create the folder: run ''mkdir -p /user/.updates'' to ensure it exists.
  * For USB: place the ''.ipk'' files on the USB stick. Place the ''usb.autorun'' and ''usbkey.txt'' files and plug the USB stick. Once the LED starts blinking, remove the USB stick and wait for a few minutes.

Example for SSH:
<code bash>
# Run on the gateway
mkdir -p /user/.updates

# Run on your computer
scp *.ipk root@ip_address_of_gateway /user/.updates/    # upload ipk files to gateway

# Run on the gateway
sync
keros -u
reboot
</code>

===== Declaration ======

For a first time install, the gateway must be declared on the dashboard. Please refer to the [[http://wikikerlink.fr/wanesy-ran/doku.php?id=wiki:administration#manage_data|administration documentation]].
