Self configuring OTBR application

On device setup

Add ip6table_filter to /etc/modules.

Fill network information

1. Fill public information to config.yaml
2. Create a secrets.yaml file:

network_key: 00112233445566778899aabbccddeeff
passphrase: j01Nme

Run

DOCKER_HOST=ssh://otbr1.local docker-compose up

Note on otbr config

OTBR will store the network config in a .data file inside OPENTHREAD_CONFIG_POSIX_SETTINGS_PATH folder which defaults to /var/lib/thread/.

If you shutdown the containers and up them again, the setup container won't need to initiate the network again as otbr will feed from it's internal config.

If you which to start from scratch, you may use the following:

DOCKER_HOST=ssh://otbr1.local docker-compose down
