# Quick Start

## Demo Overview

The CHIP reference implementation contains support for a number examples and
platforms.

This demo supports the “all-clusters-app”, so it provides the basic onoff light test but much more. Two increment modes of operation are supported for testing (configurable via Kconfig tool when building M5): <ol><li> Unsecured (WiFi only) <br> BLE Rendezvous Mode Bypass = 1 <li> PASE secured <br> (BLE pairing, WiFi operational) </ol> |

## Thread Nodes

Use one of the controllers listed above and then a Border Router and Node
combination listed below.
