Introduction
IQD-GW04 (Industrial) is a generic gateway consisting of the TR-76D module as a DPA coordinator, a single-board, a pre-configured eMMC flash and a protective plastic housing.
This device enables IQRF® customers to demonstrate and evaluate IQRF® features, and can be easily connected to existing servers (e.g. IBM Cloud, Microsoft Azure, AWS IoT, Hexio IoT). The source code of IQRF Gateway daemon and IQRF Gateway webapp is provided by the open source GitLab projects.
The device can be delivered with Armbian based Linux image or with Yocto based Linux image. The decision is made by the customer. The key features for both types of images follow.
Armbian
- SD card filesystem is mounted as read-write
- Logs are kept in memory and rotated to SD card periodically
- Support for WireGuard VPN connection
- Support for M/Monit monitoring server
- SW updates are handled via Deb packages
- No fleet updates are available
- The customers are free to add any Debian based packages
Yocto
- SD card filesystem is mounted as read-only with defined overlay
- Logs are kept in memory and can be rotated to SD card periodically
- Support for WireGuard VPN connection
- SW updates are handled via Mender artifacts
- Fleet updates are available via Mender server and artifacts
- Built in support for M/Monit monitoring server
- The custom applications must be built with support of our Yocto gateway SDK
- A solution based on the customer's requirements possible
